Being an avid collector of abstract art since the early 1990’s evidenNally led to creaNng my own abstract works. My works are largely non-‐representaNonal. My painNngs are characterized by a disNncNve use of color and form that make for a unique style. Always seeking to develop new techniques and colors leads to a large variety in my works.
The process of creaNng my work is largely intuiNve without pre-‐determined plans. The painNngs proceed from beginning to end by the leWng the canvas speak and show the way. This leads to a style that is totally uninhibited and presents infinite possibiliNes. Art is not only visual but also emoNonal. It is meant to be felt as much as seen.
