Artist Statement:
I am drawn to the idea that we
are made of stardust as is
everything in our world and
beyond and so we are all
connected to all that is. As
ancient art is bonded to the
meaning of important facts of
human life in their sacred
places at that time, we are
coupled to endless streams of
man made images and wander
through a world peppered by
incidents and images we cannot
comprehend any more than the
vast unknowns of the ancient
world. Sometimes it seems only
the heart can best understand
much of this or our response
to our environment and so I
feel expression of emotion key
to my art and re-discovery of
the inner heart. ...

Visual art is a language more powerful than any other--what we see impacts our sense of self and the beliefs with which we encounter the world. The most powerful visual icons affect our beliefs in our inner functioning. |
