WELCOME TO MY WORLD
ACRYLIC PAINTINGS, PRINTS / MIXED MEDIA AND HAND BUILT CERAMICS
FOR ME, ART INVOLVES A REALM OF FEELINGS. IF I TUNE INTO MY SENSES, I TAKE GREAT PLEASURE IN MY SURROUNDINGS AND, HOPEFULLY, TRANSLATE SOME EXPERIENCES INTO TANGIBLE PIECES THAT OTHERS CAN ENJOY. THE ABOVE MENTIONED MEDIA HAVE BECOME MY CURRENT MEANS OF EXPRESSION. MY PAINTINGS POSSESS STRONG, RICH COLOR AND UNIQUE ABSTRACT FORMS, OFTEN ENHANCED WITH DIMENSIONAL EFFECTS. I OFTEN USE A TERRA SIGILLATA METHOD IN WORKING WITH CLAY. EACH PIECE IS HAND SHAPED AND CARVED WITH A BURNISHED FINISH. MY PRINTS EVOLVE FROM NATURE. I CARVE SOME OBJECTS INTO A BLOCK. SOMETIMES THE ORIGINAL SUBJECT IS PRESSED ONTO DIFFERENT SURFACES, USING A VARIETY OF VIVID INK, EACH YIELDING A ONE OF A KIND IMAGE.
