I have always gravitated to making marks on a page, loving colour and the movement of life. It seems I’ve always been searching for something beyond the realm of the here and now and art has been a vehicle to touch the un-seen. It is an emotional and spiritual process and I remain a student of the world creatively pursing the question...what does it mean to be human? Why are we here? Is there something more to what I touch, taste and feel?


I work in mixed media and watercolour starting with a general idea and mixing translucent paints that I want to work with. At the beginning I work quickly and make marks freely using a variety of tools. I let the painting take shape as I create an under-painting using mostly neutral colors. Then I apply colour, mixing it on the canvas and strive to balance what lies before me. I am constantly adjusting the composition until I feel it is finished. Sometimes this process takes months, other times it can come together quite quickly.


Art has a way to bridge the gap where words sometimes fail and are not enough. Painting is one process by which I communicate my innermost secrets and thoughts to the world. It is as fundamental to me as breathing, and it is my hope to inspire others to discover themselves through creating art.
