The evolution of my art has been a natural additive progression. My art is a reflection of my life. I have yet to exhaust exploring the formal elements and principles of design.

While some works take on a recognizable structural imagery, I enjoy creating nonrepresentational works as well. My compositions are full of dimension, expression, texture and pattern. Currently my choice of media is acrylic paint, handmade papers and mono-prints.

Each piece begins with several drawings combined; often one over another. Rendering form and space guides the underlying structure and composition of my work. I approach the work intuitively by laying in color choices, be it paint, papers or prints. The process of making paper and mono-prints allows me to produce a unique unit to add to the composition; the papers and prints are selected for immediate color and texture. As the composition develops, each piece is rotated, and shapes and lines get covered up and often new ones are created. For me, the evolution of the painting is an exciting, unknown journey that compels me to create.

My largest source of applicable information is from the preceding painting. I am always striving for an aesthetic surprise. My ongoing goal is to keep an open mind, expand my perception and continue to create.
