Artist Statement:
A painting starts when I see
something that is visually
intriguing. The whole world is
a canvas of images; the
sunlight streaming through a
window and dancing on the
opposite wall; the shadow
patterns the clouds make as
they drift over the rolling
Flint Hills; the pink hibiscus
perfectly framing the yellow
and white wild flowers in the
distant field. The camera is
my tool to capture the awe of
these moments.
In the studio, I recall the
emotion, the colors and the
mood of the experience. Using
the captured images, I sketch
the basic shapes in dark
neutral colors. I then add
color in layers of glazing. I
have used both oils and
acrylics from the beginning.
Acrylics are versatile and
allow me to work quickly in
the layering of paint without
waiting for each layer to dry.
A completed painting often
appears within my Mind's Eye.
The dreamlike imagery that
comes is symbolic, expressing
deep visual tones within
myself. Painting engages me in
a oneness with the image. I
enter a state of awareness in
which the visuals are fully
expressed and communicated.
