Artist’s Statement
I spend time outside, looking at nature, up close, or far away. I become fascinated with a particular place and what lives and grows there. I focus on how to paint what I see and feel. Then my responses lead to a series of paintings that explore the colors, spaces, marks, and energies: a sense of place is present in all my art work. It is also an ongoing exploration of paint and painting, anchored in the natural world.
