Artist Statement
I love color.
In my paintings, which are in oil and acrylic, I choose colors carefully. My hope is that the colors in my work solicit emotion. I look to convey strength and power; a feeling of gentleness and balance; or a sense of depth and rhythm.
I also rely on color to bring intensity or subtlety to my image.
