ARTIST STATEMENT
Each piece I create is an intuitive journey for me. I enjoy the magic that happens along the way. My preference is to work part to whole as I build an image. Even though I have a mental picture in my head, I do not let that interfere with the a certain order.

I’m happiest using drawing media and painting media on paper. Instead of planning my art from beginning to end, I trust spontaneous impulses. They give me the best results. They also excite me. I don’t like to hem myself in, while completing a project.

Many of my drawings and paintings are derivative of doodle sketches. Each one is more finished and reflects a conclusion to an artistic exploration. I like going into new directions and discovering new ways to use my favorite media.
