Where is the truth in our expressive landscape, our hope within change, our deviation from the past? I layer with color and scratch: scrape, adding collage prepared papers. I flood the surface hosting my world and my imagination; embracing the threat of darkness, while letting brilliance streak in. Free the spirit of all things constraining; to challenge anew!

With the world forever changing, and with the dividing of people, my process starts by seeing and feeling for hours outside my protected space. By going on walks around my neighborhood, on paths in parks and woods, driving by open spaces and vast skies dreaming about what is beyond the sky and what is underneath the ground. The sounds and smells of the ocean and what lives around this open scene. My work is an abstract expression with color and mood as my focus. I hope the viewer will feel that space and step into their own reflections and memories.

In the midst of the human condition, there is no missing both the greatness and deficit in the world we live. My imagery attempts to provoke both subject and viewer. In an attempt to magnify and better realize this amazing landscape. Believing people have the power and ability to dream and create better worlds and new realities through the creative process, I hope my art will allow you to accompany me in this vision.
