Artist Statement
Each painting is an adventure, its direction unfold
as the layers build. A piece is finished when it takes on a
life of its own. Finished pieces can have upwards of two hundred
layers of pigment. One advantage of a water
medium pigment is its translucent qualities. The layering of
transparent on transparent and so on, up to a few hundred layers,
produces unique coloring not obtainable in a single opaque stroke.
My paintings are meant to express the energy of life that surrounds
us in our everyday life. I find this energy exists not only
as you would expect in a landscape, but in a simple still life
as well.
