Dialogue: 0,0:00:22.30,0:00:26.37,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,If I keep looking at it, I'll have to go back and start working again. [LAUGHS]
Dialogue: 0,0:00:32.02,0:00:37.10,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,What I'm looking for is resolution. I have it one day and I don't have it the next day.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:37.10,0:00:43.64,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But, that's why being an artist is so great because you can get that kind of satisfaction.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:43.64,0:00:49.18,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The thing that has been hard about these paintings, is that I don't know how I'm gonna get them resolved.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:52.32,0:00:57.20,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I thought, when I did the drawings for this painting, I was very excited.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:57.20,0:01:00.62,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,They looked really great to me. And then I blew it up,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:00.62,0:01:09.24,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And the guys who make these forms for me put it together, made it, and it came back into the studio.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:09.24,0:01:13.70,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And, you know, the minute I saw it, I just didn't see how it was going to go together at all.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:13.70,0:01:16.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Even before I touched it. Just the way the forms were working.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:16.99,0:01:20.17,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I just thought: "What was I thinking of! This is gonna be horrible."
Dialogue: 0,0:01:20.17,0:01:25.12,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And it was really, really a long journey with this painting.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:25.12,0:01:31.53,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The colors I thought I was going to use, none of them worked in the beginning.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:31.53,0:01:33.94,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But that's nothing new.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:36.12,0:01:39.27,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The whole painting was painful.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:40.94,0:01:50.12,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Usually, what happens is when I start to really hate it, it starts to go someplace.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:50.12,0:01:52.69,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But it's almost as though you have to get down into that place where
Dialogue: 0,0:01:52.69,0:01:57.97,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,You absolutely hate it and want to rip it off the wall, rip it to pieces, and throw it out,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:57.97,0:02:07.39,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,To start getting into it. It's very strange.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:11.34,0:02:16.67,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,For instance, that particular bloopy shape with the spinal column that goes through it,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:16.67,0:02:20.28,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I wanted something through the center, it needed something in the middle,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:20.28,0:02:25.37,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,That was going off-center in the form. I had a zig-zaggy line for a while.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:25.37,0:02:29.88,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And for a while, I liked it, and then one day, I came in here and I said, "No."
Dialogue: 0,0:02:32.86,0:02:40.40,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The spinal column ended up being a kind of way to get through the shape and into the next shape.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:47.97,0:02:51.80,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The resolution has to happen without anybody seeing it, not even me.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:51.80,0:02:54.87,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But I know that it's there. I feel that it's there.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:54.87,0:02:59.54,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,There's a moment when I start to feel it with this painting. And I don't think I could describe it
Dialogue: 0,0:02:59.54,0:03:04.37,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But I do feel...I feel that with it because I can stop it.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:04.38,0:03:11.96,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,When I look at it, instead of it being this battle, this conflict that I have to try to pull together,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:12.50,0:03:16.21,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I can look at it, peacefully.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:16.67,0:03:17.52,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,[ART HANDLER 1] Ok, lift for the blocks.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:18.35,0:03:19.34,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,[ART HANDLER 2] Where are the blocks?
Dialogue: 0,0:03:22.22,0:03:25.31,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,[ART HANDLER 1] Come on Steve, we need a block man!
Dialogue: 0,0:03:27.11,0:03:28.78,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,[ART HANDLER 1] No, not on the chicken head. [ALL LAUGH]
Dialogue: 0,0:03:32.24,0:03:39.33,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,When it feels right, it's such a natural thing, when it feels right,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:39.33,0:03:43.11,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,When you realize that something really is completed.
