I
take the liberty of combining a variety of images and colors together to see
what the outcome will be. My paintings are primarily based on
instinct and mystery. I attempt to create an unexpected unity in my work. You will
not always find the same stylistic approach in each piece.
My paintings are tableaus
of the late night unknown, ghost, and rituals. Each embodies cryptic images and
mythological narratives. The energetic direct vertical strokes have a lurid supernatural glow. Paint
immediately allows me to express with bold colors and energy. My brushstrokes create energetic patterns, gesture and movement.
The colors also
maintain energy because they reflect and bounce off one another. I begin working on art as
a way to take an adventure to an unexpected place. Each piece becomes an expressive roadside scene. They are vivid emotional
landscapes of an
abandoned past in conjunction with an unforeseen future.
