I am primarily an abstract painter, but there is a representational aspect to some of my work. I like to work large scale but also do smaller paintings and drawings. My work is in private and corporate collections nationally and internationally. I have received artist residency grants from the Pouch Cove Foundation, I-Park Foundation, The Vermont Studio Center, and the Wurlitzer Foundation. Commissions are considered.
My art is a visual and emotional response to the world outside of my studio. I can be by the water or in the city where light, space, and structures interest me most. I like vast expanses and active streets. I want to capture what is compelling about a location or setting while asking what’s this place about? Why am I pulled in by this place?
The paintings, then, are also about questions. How do I paint thoughts? How do I paint sound or emotion? I work on a painting with these ideas and certain visuals in mind. The process of painting is a continuous search for the truth. When I paint I want to travel to a new place in the work -- I want the work to be alive.
