“The sensation of color, the lushness of oil paints, the
and the surprise of abstraction are what drive me to paint— add drama to the canvas, and I’m hooked! At the inception
of my paintings, I select colors inspired by nature, random places, or other artists’s paintings, whatever catches my eye, stirs my curiosity, or challenges me. From there, I draw lines on the canvas, creating the structure of geometric spaces that will conspire and dialog with the vignettes of organic and fluid movements of paint. I place color next to color, with the goal of finding just the right combination so that each will make the other shine, or as in this series, Pop!”
