Paintings
- Statement
Aspects
of nature are the inspiration for my paintings. The heart
of nature's beauty instills in me a sense of awe, wonder,
and fear as I am drawn into its world of mystery, power, depth,
light and dark.
Nature
and the universe are constant reminders to me of life and
death; the impermanence of a cloud, a flower, a star, a wave
and of our existence.
My paintings are archives of emotional and intuitive responses
to nature/life/death. They are a way to interpret and catch
the fleeting beauty that surrounds us and a way to embrace
the unknown.
As I push the paint or the wax, I experience my reaction to
a given moment; in that instant the complex becomes simple.
Time stands still and moves on at the same time. The visceral
act of painting leads me into the realm of constant change
and movement. As I touch beauty, I see that she never sits
still and is always beckoning me on.
