Artist Statement:
For me painting is the visual
equivalent of the evocative
language in poetry, in which
brief flashes of description
and condensed narrative draw
the reader through rapid
shifts in location and time,
effecting emotional
transformations through the
journey.
The notion of the realm of
nature holding the spiritual
was introduced to me at the
Rudolph Steiner School I
attended as a child. The
philosophy taught there called
Anthroposophy maintained that
“material science could never
comprehend the whole of nature
as it excluded the realm of
the spirit. Bridging between
the physical and spiritual
worlds, anthroposophy would
show the way towards a true
understanding of humanity and
it’s relation to the
universe.”
The Steiner philosophy also
incorporated the idea of
education through the arts.
This early emphasis on the
spiritual has led me to
explore painting as my life’s
practice and transformation
through art making.
The paintings link pieces of
information in clearly defined
“film strip” like sections
horizontal or vertically
aligned, or in layered imagery
that builds information on an
open visual field. The
difference is spatial but the
information is similarly

I employ free hand drawing
(through wet paint) for a
sharp line quality rendered
pictorially ...
