Statement

I have an intuitive approach to painting.

Inspired by the beauty of the natural world, the complexities of the human condition, color and light, and the work of other artists, I seek to connect the outer world with my inner reality.

Painting for me is a practice; an exercise to deepen my relationship with the wonder of the world around me.

In applying layers of color, experimenting with textures, and with exploratory mark-making, I let the painting unfold organically. Much as the dream process pulls on a cache of images, memories and narratives to produce its own kind of logic, I try to allow this process to determine my choices as the painting reveals a truth of its own.
