Artist Statement

I must paint- it is my work and my pleasure. Painting for me is challenging, centering, exhilarating, frustrating and joyous...it is all encompassing.I live in the country, close to nature. My surroundings intially stimulate and inform my imagination...the light, color, spirit and the energy of a moment. I reimagine the natural world with hues more vivid and forms perhaps more fluid than nature's own.

I paint entirely in my small,cozy studio.Sometimes I tone the canvas; other times I prefer the bright white of the primed canvas. I rarely make preliminary sketches, I might have an intention or an image in mind, or I may just start putting colors down until something appears. Because of my fascination with the relationship between colors, I do alot of layering and scraping of paint, staying alert for interesting harmonies. By selection,elimination,and emphasis, I express my inner self through my art.
