"I use drawing as a contrast to my painting. By adding drawing to the painting, a different dynamic is created in my work, and a break appears in the rhythm of the painted surface.

I attach the oil stick to a telescopic handle – the type you would usually use to paint walls and ceilings – which provides a distance. It's a little over two metres long, so you lose the precise control over the oil stick and get the chance to achieve a more interesting result."
