Why Paint?

I like to paint.  There was a time when I was scared to paint, thinking I wouldn’t be any good at it.  I was used to drawing and liked the precision and control I had with it.  Paint seemed messy and unforgiving.  I can’t pinpoint exactly when I began to like painting.  I think gradually I just learned to be less critical of my results thus allowing me more opportunity to work with paint.  I like the tactile process of painting.  I like filling in each square inch of a canvas, transforming it from a white blank space into a story.  I like the toothy texture of the canvas.  I like the look of the paint as it spreads across and fills in each crevice.  I like the challenge of it even though it can be daunting.  I just really like to paint.
