I experience a connection with life through creativity. The ultimate expression of the creative
spirit lies in the unlimited details of the natural world. Drawing and painting these details
gives me the opportunity to intertwine personal creativity with the spirit of nature’s creativity.
During this artistic process I discover an internal place of healing and a grounded appreciation of life
“in the moment”. This experience makes possible a connection with creation on a grander scale.
I describe my work as expressionistic.
The forms, lines and patterns drawn and painted are a subjective interpretation resulting in an exaggerated
and distorted version of reality. Transferring original drawings to canvas enlarges personal expression through
internal use of color and brushstroke. I want the viewer to experience subjective energy in union with reality.
I find the complexity of natural forms to be symbolic of the cyclical drama of opposites that unfolds in
every human life and thus bind us to the cycle of the natural world.
