My subject is color. Paintings emerge through the engagement with the materials themselves. The process is intuitive exploring color relationships and the space and light created within and around color.

I lean toward a feeling of simplicity in finished work, seeking that sweet spot of aliveness through the interplay of necessary opposites: containment and freedom. I find space in simple shapes, forms, and blocks of color. I want the work to spark a wordless, visceral experience of beauty and aliveness- a pure, energetic interaction with color and form, space and light.
