Artists Statement
My art reflects a spiritual and physical response to the environment. By integrating concept, color, and design, I establish the boundaries of my composition, enabling me to develop a cohesive, unified work.
While painting, I lose my conscious being, as a personal dialogue is established between my spiritual self and the canvas. The imagery used in my work is derived from a communion with the natural world, stimulating my creativity and sense of well-being.
In addition to creating a painting of artistic value and appeal, my goal is to reflect the beauty and peace which I experience during the painting process. I strive to provide the viewer with a sense of tranquility and the opportuinty to feel a stillness and quiet in the soul ~ a refuge from the frenetic pace of todays' world.
