Artist's Statement
The following exhibit of works is a retrospective of my
work in painting, drawing and new constructed works. These
images depict five separate and unique bodies of work and
give examples of the past, present and future.
In concept, all my work stems from a form of abstract
expressionism dealing with creating a mode of communication
through abstract images that are esoteric in nature. All of
the paintings and drawings hint at certain images and
symbols that a viewer may recognize but does not
necessarily coincide with my intent. These images and
symbols of my personal and esoteric experiences are
expressed in non-objective yet formal compositions.
Utilizing color, movement, rhythm, balance etc., my
expressionistic execution of the work comes from a personal
and emotional response to each painting. These works are
not intended to be purely non-objective in the traditional
sense but rather appreciated by the individual based on his
or her own experiences. The abstract expressionist style is
carried throughout my work but does not rely heavily on
historical boundaries. I combine strong, vibrant colors
with implied motion to reflect my key themes of nature,
music and environment.
