My work is as much about process as it is about emotions. In my world imagery is secondary to the act of art making. Abstract in nature with an underlying visual order encompassing not only an openness and orderliness but embracing chaos from which each of the works evolve. After altering and adjusting the subtleties and the not so subtleties of the mark making I strive for an atmospheric conclusion. In the process I am incessantly juggling balance, color and emotion. In a constant push-pull activity, I paint, building up, destroying, painting over, leaving what I have a relationship with and eagerly searching for new and harmonious kinships.
