Artist Statement:
These paintings are an attempt
at expressing love. Sometimes
love is a whisper, a gentle
touch, a prayer. Sometimes
it's an explosion of emotion,
a burning passion, a
blossoming flower. It is the
most complex and mysterious
part of life. I yearn to know
more of it, and to share what
little I do know.
I use bright colors and layers
of paint as an expression of
what overflows from my heart.
The images and ideas on the
canvas are the things I see,
but more than anything, feel
in my spirit.
I use contrasting layers of
thick and thin paint, opaque
and transparent, warm and
cool, dark and light. Often I
will use figures, or images,
to express a feeling or
experience. White-dotted lines
turn and move throughout most
paintings, often connecting
parts, or leading the eye.
I use a variety of surfaces
including the standard canvas
on which to paint. Most
commonly, I have been painting
handbags, to be used as a
traveling piece of art. I hope
to share these expressions
with many people by having the
art go out all over the world
and into the everyday - the
bakery, school, church, home;
as well ...

| Why Did You Become An Artist |
Creating art has always been something so natural for me. If I am not painting, I find myself starting other creative projects such as sewing, embroidering, writing, even drawing doodles while I'm on the phone. It's a constant outpouring of whatever is inside. Painting is just the format I choose to create works to share outside of my own life. I paint for others to enjoy what I carry with me.
I believe most artists would say the same about themselves.
