Artist Statement:
My paintings and drawings are allegorical and narrative with personal and social emphasis. Themes are many times open ended with multi meanings and suggestions for the viewer as well as myself. Ambiguity and mystery are common in my work. Symbolism is evident whenever it appears in landscapes, still lives, figures, portraits, interiors, or abstractions. These subjects and symbols are the vehicle for visions with a dreamlike quality. I many times use a large variety of drawing and paintings mediums within one drawing or painting. Moods and ideas are expressed through color, texture, and movement. The techniques I use include hands, fingers, and brushes applied with differing angles, pressures and speeds. The tactile nature of thick, action filled paint strokes often brings strong reaction from the viewer. Each work has a distinct orientation as to distance and angles enabling us to view an optical mix of colors and textures. Three-dimensional aspects accent the dramatic and the bold in my work. I would describe my artwork as a response and expression to the world around me.
