Artist Statement:
My figurative paintings are
representative of spontaneous
moments in time. The figure
presents not only a joyful
challenge for me as a painter,
but as the pinnacle aesthetic
of creation it is also filled
with meaning.
I paint in oil with a heavy
emphasis on values and
composition. I start
with thin washes gradually
building form and light with
thicker layers
of paint. This direct painting
process reflects the immediacy
with which
life is experienced. While
utilizing formal elements of
picture making,
the figures retain a
spontaneous, natural air. The
painting technique
used brings attention to the
figure which demonstrates it's
importance
without neglecting the
surroundings and their impact.
For me, the process of oil
painting is just another way
to focus on
what's important and discover
the larger meaning in the
little things....
