Artist Statement
I delight in portraying the illusion of reality on a two dimensional surface and am constantly intrigued by complexity. My paintings are the public face of my private meditations and are an expression of who I am – my sensitivities and spirituality. They are my story told through the medium of oil and pastel and expressed in subjects that fascinate and inspire. Each painting is a vehicle for self expression and a stepping stone of understanding both of myself and the subject I have chosen. With each stepping stone of understanding comes a deep reverence for the rich tapestry of life.
