...at times beautiful and at times hauntingly devoid of detail my landscapes explore the terrain of representational painting while tugging on the apron strings of abstract expressionism. The interplay of color and composition is at the heart of my work; one isn’t there without the other. My landscapes are a compelling blend of the sensual act of painting and intellectual perusing.
The vistas I paint exist only in the landscapes I create. These scenes are a convergence of life experiences...serene, poetic, mysterious, and enigmatic. Vying for an inner cohesion my thoughts transcend into paintings of compelling nuance and presence.
The paintings seem to hover like the horizon hovers between heaven and earth. The ephemeral yet potent horizons both separate and unite sky and ground. Bound by the earth’s dance, the two cling to each other and, in the end, yield triumphant paintings.
