Artist Statement:
To an artist, hands are a beautiful thing. Beyond prayer, hands empower the soul. They also tell every story under the sun. Trial to triumph, compassion to crucifixion--these hands are filled with every line of life.
My works convey an underlying spiritual theme; with overtones of societal issues. The element of 'hands' depicted are an important vehicle to deliver an expression of emotions that need no face to convey, no voice to tell. Rich meaning is drawn on an individual basis as each viewer finds themselves moved by the emotional tone of the piece, depiction, or left with a hunger to discover ’why?’.
For this series I use an earthen palette with contrastive emphasis for a direct and impacting visual image; the inherent darkness to convey a dreamlike 'state of thought'. My desire is to pull the viewer into empathy; fusing personal life experience with the message and emotion that the painting exudes.
