Artist Statement:
My art is a way of
communicating the resolving of
the conflicts that occurs in
all our lives. Whether it is a
confrontation with another,
struggle against the world, or
a clash against ourselves; the
figurative imagery represents
the conflict as it is worked
out on paper or canvas. When
my work is going well I feel a
sense of power and rhythm from
the action of drawing, of
moving through space with
minimal effort and
obstruction. No distraction
just on to the next move. Much
like mastering Tai Chi or some
other martial art.
I am constantly searching for
the right pose to convey the
right body language. I want a
certain amount of challenge to

important element for me is

the line I enjoy most.
