Artist Statement:
The immediate source of my
work is the painting process
itself. Paint is applied,
moved around, scraped and
scratched and reapplied.
Images arise from this ongoing
interaction with the work in
progress. Painting is
intuitive, intense,
non-verbal, physical, active.
It is a process of building up
and stripping away again in a
search for what is
fundamental. It moves back and
forth between complexity and
simplicity in an effort to
find that place where nothing
can be added or taken away
without destroying the whole.
For me, painting is both a
process of discovery and a way
of exploring deeper layers of
meaning. My work is an
expression of my connection to
the natural world and its
continuing cycles of birth,
growth, death, decay, and
renewal. The immediate
environment, both manmade and
natural, provides a constantly
changing source of visual
stimulation. The paintings
have deep roots in the
physical environment.
