Artist Statement
In a digital age the act of painting has created for me, the paradigm of the “the found object”, “art as artifact”. The notion that long beyond my experience of its creation the work it will be a tangible. The process of painting is cumulative; regenerative my work is honest, obsessive, arduous, and liberating. Subtlety of texture, the sensitive characteristic of line, the fluid aspects of gesture, form and tonality are integral to the process. These elements are vital components for me, which reveal many questions. The exploration of my subjects, is the grand intention, the diversity of them reflects the multifaceted palette from which I am able to choose.
Contrast is an important element in my work. The people, the objects and their juxtaposition.
I explore the questions that making my art presents. I embrace the communication it conjures.
It is the grand conversationalist.
