Artist Statement:
When thinking in terms of a traditional oil painting; basic properties of foreground, mid-ground, and background are present in landscape, still-life, and portraiture. My work contains all of the elements of these traditional ideas. Forms are being presented in a monumental way, and are embedded within the idea of a landscape or still-life. The focus however is not on what we would conceive as a recognizable form, but on the idea of what makes a three dimensional form convincible in a two dimensional format. A shape and the edges that encompass it or the contrast of one color next to another all lend to the illusion of a tangible existence with a minimalist approach. My work deals more on the surface of apparent as opposed to the real, while making distinguishable the individual parts.
Forms are going about their business in vast fields of color. Shapes and ideas couple together while being reduced to their simplest form. I approach my work with the same concept that we create, observe, and live.
