In my youth, I was always mesmerized by nature and the visual ironies with which it presented itself. There is nothing so pure and powerful as nature. The contradictions in its color palette, along with its subtle nuances, enhanced my senses and impressed me.
It is those very impressions that have influenced my work. All of my art is original and influenced by nature and the human form. Whether I digitally manipulate my original photographs or begin with a brush and mix unconventional media to reinforce nature's contradictions, I always tend to focus on the irony of it all. That is nature's true character and I strive to capture it, hoping to heighten the viewer's senses.
My expressionistic view helps me communicate my feelings and interpretations. By using deliberate, thick impasto oil techniques, the delicate stroke of watercolor and oil pastel, or the contradictory combination of resin and organic material, I seek to convey the true character of each work until it absorbs a life of its own.
The relationships of the elements of nature are so intertwined and I am influenced by this simple complexity and raw beauty. I bring this quality into my work through series of pieces, all relating to one another in some visual form. When my art evokes emotional responses and reactions, no matter how strong or silent, I believe I then have communicated what nature has intended us to see.
Hopefully, I have helped evoke a response from you.
