ARTISTS STATEMENT:
I take a minimalist and personal approach to materials, using oil-based house paint, brooms, and foam brushes. I build my canvases from Luan Plywood, the same stuff hollow core doors are made from. With these materials I found a timeless space in which I can paint directly from an emotional arena. The action of the work, and the quickness of the decisions within it, make an emotional Journal, or an account, or a breath within its ambiance. I'm looking for a presence I hadn't thought of, until we met.
