Artist Statement:
I am a believer in the
orthodox medium of oil on
canvas. I like the simplicity
of the materials. There is a
deep and satisfying attraction
in the smell and touch of oil
paint. And, the richness and
density of color is unique to
this medium giving the painter
a greater potential to connect
to the object matter and the
viewer.
In my work, texture is as
important as color and shape.
With each layer I paint the
thickness stores energy and
overtime, the painting evolves
into a separate entity. In
this process there is a
dialogue between painting and
painter and I am lead by my
painting as much as I direct
it.
In my art, I aspire to depict
the unstoppable inner motion
of space, shape and color.
Mundane objects such as a
glass or two placed at a
table, a chair bathed in
daylight, or an oil-lamp
casting its modest glow in a
quiet interior reveals to me
about the complexity of the
nature of perception and the
energy that belies the
surface....

The death of painting has been
proclaimed and lamented over
the last few decades to the
point of becoming one of the
more tired clichés in art
criticism. At the same time,
regardless of the weight of
