Statement

Every sensation I’ve known can potentially find its way into my paintings. The colors, shapes, and textures in them have qualities that I have perceived, or that I remember, even fleetingly. This happens whether I intend it or not. My work arises from a fascination with structure. Each painting establishes its own unique context, or world. It may have elements that evoke still-life, landscape, or portrait painting, or some combination of any of these, or perhaps something else entirely. I want to sum up the mood of being in a place and time, whether it is distant or close, whether it is in the past or now.
