In whatever medium I work I continue to explore the mysteriousness of life: its beauty, its peacefulness, its awesomeness, its power. I draw using a free flowing gesture often expressing exuberance and joy in spontaneous moments of passion. Paintings use color and light to manifest the other-worldly and mystical. Prints are layered combinations of drawings that will either express contained energy or quiet solitude. Photographs combined with a computer software program allows the exploration of transformation through the blending of the figure with the natural world.
