Artist’s Statement:

 

In my 2D work, I work primarily with acrylic and latex paints, inks, papers and charcoal.  My images contain many diverse layers of meaning from the universal to the specific and the personal. My works are often abstract. I am frequently interested in pattern and/or creating a rich sensual surface by making layer upon layer of marks. There is often an unseen history within these layers as images are obscured and revealed. My work frequently gives reference to my experience with nature and I usually have an ongoing series that is more representational focusing on flowers, birds and animals and the human figure. “Abstract Nature" is inspired by fall scenes and colours.
