Artist's Statement:
“For me, the creation of art is all about pouring energy into a surface, building an image that holds a force of creative energy for the viewer to absorb. For some time, I have been exploring the dynamics of space, line, and color, as I view them in both urban and rural landscapes, and in both geometric and natural forms. My intent is to look between the obvious spaces in front of me, including in that view the reflections in windows and doors, the shadows cast on walls, the extension of an organic line into the space beyond the object, resulting in the creation of abstract forms that represent the energy of that space and time. My floral paintings are about exotic organic forms, vibrant colors, and the delicate movement of flowers and leaves in their natural settings. They could never be considered “still life” paintings, but my interpretations of the plants’ energy and life, and their interaction with the air and forms around them.”
