Artist Statement

I have been creating since memory first serves me, always from an energy within. While tapping into this energy I have never felt the need or desire to verbalize what comes naturally to me. Through the process of creating my art I have achieved a feeling of wholeness. This wholeness was and continues to be its own reward.

Perhaps the most unique quality of my paintings is their textural, almost sculptural feeling. Layer upon layer of acrylic glows with a translucency that seems to change subtly while you look at the canvas. What is at first glance a seemingly simple, minimal statement is actually a complex poem of nuances.

I am an intuitive painter. I attempt to never let conscious thoughts dictate the direct of my work; instead, I create the best conditions for my spiritual energy to guide my creative process. This mediumistic approach lends itself to a keen appreciation of the act or process of painting. Tuning me into the magical unfolding or the metamorphosis of each work.
