Pull Painting
I am Inspired by many artists including contemporary artists such as Gerhardt Richter, Francis Bacon, Jackson Pollack, William de Kooning, Richard Sera, and Pierre Soulages. I have developed my own unique technique for my Pull Series. My technique consists of carefully adding and subtracting layers of colors by using Palette knives, brushes and squeegees.
I create a dense, subtle and slowly deepening mixture of overlapping colors and shapes. I have developed a complex painting medium for oils and acrylics that allows me to build up unusual textures. Through research I have learned how to create heavily and impasto paintings. I work in oil or in mixed media and often add other elements such as cold wax.

Green Country of Oklahoma is filled with tumbling rivers, expansive lakes, tallgrass prairie and rolling green hills. They are the hallmarks of this lush region, rich in culture and verdant grandeur.
