Statement:

Since September 11, 2001 there
emerged a significant shift in
my works. Rather than
displaying gruesome or
haunting images of the events
of that day, I found myself
creating small watercolors of
imaginary botanicals. I found
that they became a great
release for me, but in a way,
they also became a retreat
from reality. They quickly
became a vehicle where I was
able to combine both a style
of subconscious, automatic
painting, with a calculated
infusion of themes,
figuration, and conceptual
ideas. Many examples of these
and additional works can be
found on my site at
www.picturemaker.com.

Additional themes available:
Mythology, Adam and Eve, The
Three Graces, Saturn, Artist
and Model, and water. ...
