PHILOSOPHY
My paintings are meant to express how I feel. They are my energy reproduced in lines of color on ground that please my eyes and express my understanding of the universe as vast and mysterious. I try to juxtaposition different colors so as to create depth and endless space. I seldom sign my work as I want to give each viewer the option of displaying my piece in the orientation of their own choosing. Likewise I very seldom give my work a title, again leaving it up to the individual interpretation of the viewer. In this method of producing art I am able to freely express my thoughts and give my audience an equal opportunity to create their own impressions. My work should be considered presentational rather than representational.

Abstract art is a significant shift in perception from traditional representation to an art of presence based on the psychology and physiology of seeing. I believe that, for some, abstract art can be a burden… as even before one can draw a conscious decision as to what is being seen, physiological challenges are being made and processed by the eye and brain; reconstructing the shapes into patterns of recognizable objects. Abstract art makes strenuous demands on those unfamiliar or inexperienced in viewing such work.

STYLE
Abstract Expressionism

TECHNIQUE
Oil and mixed media on large canvases
