ARTIST STATEMENT
My most recent series of paintings celebrates perennial grasses, trees and flowers in their natural habitat. In the natural world, colors, textures, and patterns are always harmonious. I need that harmony as a tempering force in my life and feel that it distills through me as I figure out representative strokes and strategies to express it in paint. My aim is to celebrate the spunk of field flowers and grasses and the spiraling reach of trees as they lean into the sun and thrive. I want my paintings to be imbued with a strong sense of place.....their place.
