Artist Statement
There is magic in manifesting ideas.
I love the process of making art - of turning something upside down and inside out - of trying variations on the same theme. I love exploring the many possibilities of an image or a technique.
I love a good line.
I love color, but I also appreciate the absence of color.
I try to retain a childlike innocence - a “what would happen if…” frame of mind. My goal is to remain open to as many possibilities and mediums as possible…to “show up” and see what happens.
I am attracted to art that evokes a visceral response. I love to feel the “energy of the thing”, whether it is through line, form, or color. Ultimately, I am fascinated by the inexplicable nature of the process of making and responding to art.
