Artist Statement:
I am interested in color as a
voice. I play with the way
colors interact whether side
by side, in subtle layers or
in the dance that travels your
eyes throughout the canvas.
Color creates a push and pull
as well as a sensuality and an
emotionality. I am also
involved in creating texture
and textural planes through
the use of textiles and
threads. Sometimes the fabrics
are completely covered with
paint leaving only their
underlying texture and other
times pieces of their essence
poke through the layers to
create surprise. My canvases
employ a great degree of under
painting and layering to
achieve a depth and richness.
The viewer can find the
strokes and colors of each
layer as they build to a
unified whole. I prefer the
freedom of working with
abstract imagery so that
color, texture, tension and
interplay are appreciated in
their purity.
My paper work often involves
graphic marks that appear as
numbers or letter and are not
meant to convey a literal
meaning, but rather to be
enjoyed for their pure graphic
beauty. I am interested in
breaking out of the picture
plane and incorporating many
elements of mixed media to
create a feeling...
