ONE ARTIST, MANY STYLES

Creating art is most rewarding when it is a process of discovery.
By working in more than one style, my work affords me
more diverse challenges and constant renewal.

Original Paintings

All of us have experienced a desire, a dream or realization…. that makes change, moving on or growing the next step in our lives. When that realization occurs, we are often compelled to leave some things behind as we move forward into the future. The doorways, windows and portals in my paintings represent those compelling steps that life requires for us to change and grow.

The process of pouring thinned oil paint has been a favorite technique. Paint is used as a foundation in liquid form, manipulated by tilting and adjusting the surface of the canvas. This process provides an array of textures and color that are spontaneous, invoking a feeling that the paint itself has created the work. Often the involvement for me is one of restraint and observation. Waiting is often essential to achieving a composition that is rhythmic and unfettered. One color is often left to dry before anotheris applied from a different direction. The result is a composition of translucent color. Finally, a simple line or stroke with a brushor palette knife completes each work.
