“I am a painter, an artist. I am driven to paint and so I do.
When seeing a blank canvas before me I have an idea of what I want to do with that space before my brush touches it. I never draw or sketch out the thoughts I have. That’s too confining and restrictive. The paint and canvas is a fluid sculpture with hidden delights and pleasure emerging as I go.
Shapes, form, and color seen in reality excite me with their potential for being translated into a dance of harmony on canvas. All from reality into an exaggerated version that is the world that I create. The use of the space given for a specific notion must be filled with what makes visual sense. The relationships of shape, form, color and texture must be in harmony with their neighbor. So in essence my paintings are my sculptures and puzzles.”
