Artist Statement
My paintings reflect a universal connection between the human spirit and the imagination. Organic lines emerging into human figures and naturalistic images define the essence of my work. The loose flow of color contrasting with deliberate patterning mirror my affective response to painting. Self-taught as a painter my work has become an integral part of my life and a concentration of my soul.
