:: :: Making my work is like drawing lines in wet sand with a long stick or watching the expanding ripples that mark the spot where a stone enters the water. Often its like walking under a vast night sky onto which I project my fantasies and fears. Abstracted elements in the landscape as well as internal spaces memories & sense perceptions are the locus of my painting.
The simultaneity of inside and outside, the duality of human and inanimate, even the oppositional forces of above and below are distinguishing characteristics in my work. But while my concerns stem from specific relationships, ironically, it is the works innate ambiguity that I cherish most. I strive to make art that operates on many levels, is able to hold paradoxical meaning, and evolves just ahead of my own ability to comprehend its entirety. :: ::
