Artist Statement:
SCULPTURED PAINTINGS
COMBINING PAINTING, IMPASTO
AND SCULPTURE IN A
CONTEMPORARY APPROACH TO
LANDSCAPE PAINTING
ARTIST STATEMENT
My paintings are lush
landscapes featuring
SCULPTURED
PAINTINGS ( heavy dimensional
impasto), with a road or
path theme exploring the
majesty of trees. I combine
both
paintbrush and pallet knife
techniques, along with various
other painting objects, with
sculpture and carving to
enhance the richly textured
canvas. The brilliant
layers
of colors and vibrant contrast
create a calm, serene,
effect with an emphasis using
a very contemporary
approach. My paintings invite
you to be inspired by the
metaphor of the mystery and
the journey of life and offer
a spiritual retreat to the
viewer. 3-dimensional texture
not
only enhances the boldness of
the paint but also allows
the external light to impact
upon my paintings.
