I am interested in the interaction of color and the physical feel and look of paint – and the places they take me during the process of painting. As I apply color, make strokes, clarify areas, an internalized landscape surfaces and I work with that, going back and forth between the immediate physicality of the process and my own place-memory. I bring out the world of the subconscious; it is at once a world I am making and one I am revisiting. The great challenge is to get thinking out of the way so that the intuitive creative process can move on and make its discoveries.

I work as an abstract painter, printmaker (monotype and Print Gocco), and–when the necessity arrives–collage and mixed media.
