ARTIST STATEMENT
Painting is for me the process of discovering what I want to see. I have always been attracted to the unknown rather than the known. For this reason abstraction is a natural and intuitive choice.
I am constantly mixing and matching to find a balance between tension and harmony, spontaneity and control, empty space and active space, depth and surface.
A painting is complete when it no longer demands anything from me.
As a painter I understand that duplicating work to represent a style has some merit. However, my signature style is the process itself. I always seem to take each painting to the next level using what I learned from the previous session. I'll sometimes start by copying the idea, and then I allow it to become its own entity."
As an artist to attain success, I believe it is thru failure. This truly makes me try new and different methods. My style allows me to be very creative; this is the most exciting part, to know that I will always be able to create something new.
"Always paint freely,and thrive on rejection."
