Artist Statement:
My paintings are about the
hidden order of the natural
world. Ideas of solitude,
transformation, curiosity,
fragility, and
interconnectedness pervade the
work.
The imagery I use consists of
glyphs, semi abstracted
plants, animals, and figures
that inhabit a “landscape”
made up of simple geometric
patterns. This primitive
geometry serves as a loose
framework to organize, join,
and simultaneously isolate the
various subjects in the
paintings.
Rich textures and a subtle
meditative light quality are
created through the process of
working and reworking the
surface. The tension between
the quiet geometry and the
active surface complexity
evokes a meditative state that
floats between the concrete
and the temporal.
