About
My work is mainly on paper or canvas. My pictures are sparse, with elements conceived as minimal landscapes, whether as a space filled with trees or as an empty desert, using color as way to create texture on an otherwise ambiguous surface.
While
working, I use sketches for the imagery and rely on a memorized record
of my impressions. I reflect on those impressions as I work in my medium.
Always developing and moving forward. I move my medium . . . my medium
moves me.
It is an intermixing of art and artist, and the conception of another thought with the birth of every new piece.
As continuous as the changing seasons, the evolution
of my artwork will go on . . .
