Artist Statement:

Through my paintings, I want to convey my joy and happiness in being alive after surviving a life-threatening illness. It is very important to me to express a delight with life and evoke the freedom and wonder of a renewed sense of well-being, as well as offering inspiration and hope.

I create art in series to more fully explore a theme. I start with a layer of texture by making expressive marks on canvas, then add acrylic paint in single layers. I use a variety of brushes, bottles, sponges and other tools to paint bold color combinations and vivid patterns. This method offers fun surprises when spontaneous interactions form unique compositions.

Eventually, when I experience the pleasure and enjoyment that I want to communicate to the world, I know the painting is complete.

Artistic Influences:

I consider myself an abstract expressionist painter and each of my acrylic paintings is a visual journal created by layers of paint, texture and mark making. Working spontaneously, I allow each layer to dry before applying the next coat; a process that allows time for the painting to “speak" to me about what comes next. Expressionistic marks are painted intuitively, and I love the impression they give of writing or graffiti. My work is created in series and I try to do 3-4 series of 6-10 paintings a year; all with a positive or uplifting theme
