ARTIST STATEMENT

My non-objective paintings celebrate the vibrancy of intuitive marks that seem to develop
from the subconscious. As I apply collage and acrylic paint the layers gently camouflage the flowing forms taking shape and multiplying. In recent works I take cues from legendary abstract expressionists and color field painters, carefully laying down choice collage papers, dripping paint and using engaging chroma. These fresh works are idiosyncratically strong and are either of subtle tones or delightfully rich in color.
