Artist Statement
I am motivated by the mystery that abstract art allows viewers to interpret for themselves. The color combinations I see in nature, worldwide travel, years of color study, fashion styling, theater, and music are often my key inspirations when I begin a series. Starting with a blank canvas, I make the largest stroke first, often followed by adding a patterned collage, mark-making, or element that motivates each additional step in my composition. My growth is often in community settings where I have learned and painted with otherartists on the same work as part of my discovery process. My work usually begins on a large scale, and I then create series that are accessible to many people. When someone is moved, touched, or relates to one of my paintings, regardless of my intent, I feel I have succeeded.
