Artist Statement:
A good work of art should be
startling every time one sees
it. Such a work begins a
dialogue between the viewer
and the art, and the more
meaning that is implanted in
the art, the deeper that
dialogue can be. The value of
any work of art is not in its

Likewise, the most successful
viewer is not one with the
best education or the finest
taste, but one who can respond
to the work with the greatest
sensitivity.
Hopefully, my art provides no
answers and removes no doubts.
My intent, rather, is to ask
tough questions - to comfort
the afflicted and afflict the
comfortable - to plunge the
viewer into that wondrous
process of dialogue. The
interaction is usually not a
verbal or even a conscious
one, but often one that
continues, at various levels
of awareness, as long as the
viewer and the artwork are
within range of each other.
(Incidentally, a similar
dialogue occurs between me and
each of my works, sometimes
over a long period of time.)
