CONTEMPORARY ABSTRACTIONS

Artist Statement

“Art speaks to me more than words as I search for meaning and purpose in every mark I make. It’s exhilarating when I feel I can convey this to the viewer of my work.”

 

I am currently working in my studio as an abstract painter, which has been exciting and challenging.  My ultimate goal as an artist is to create rich textured paintings that reflect the way I feel about the beauty and mystery that nature holds. Water, rocks, old worn walls, as well as cracks in walkways all inspire me. A spiritual element is often found within each painting. 

 

In my most recent works, a hidden figure will emerge unexpectedly, causing drama and excitement to my contemporary design. My goal is to capture a feeling rather than paint perfect details as I build layer upon layer of texture using an oil and cold wax technique.
