I start a painting with complete openness and trust how a composition will unfold and where it will take me. I create texture and energize forms and surfaces by building layers and deliberately manipulating shapes, colors, and space. My process also involves leaving some things to nature, where seemingly unrelated components cross paths, interact, or organize. At the heart of my work is a need to explore and discover. In these abstract land and sea paintings I visually share my impressions of nature’s vibrant, spontaneous, mysterious, and sensual qualities.
