A paint brush loaded with color is one of life's great pleasures for me.
My main subject matter is abstract landscapes; not of a specific place but of "universal shapes" and horizon lines. The landscapes have evolved into a dialogue, in paint,into various weather and seasonal faces influenced by water.
I paint with oil on canvas, primarily concerning myself with form and color. Since exploring the abstract qualities of water in the landscape genre,however,linear elements are very important and expressive element within the painting.
Drawing and painting, though traditional means of visual expression,and perhaps because of it, affords me a stable place to go deeper into whatever creative needs and impulses I have buried insideto be expressed. |
