Artist Statement

I believe that color has metaphorical weight. I work in reaction to the beauty of natural world, specifically the interactions between atmosphere, light, and the earth. The horizon demarcating earth and atmosphere occupy daily reflection.  My work is a meditation on the chemistry of light, air, water and the combinations of sky and weather patterns.  My paintings of nature are a personal form of prayer and gratitude. When I create a piece of statement art – I use the intensity of the color as a means of conveying my emotional human response to events.   My art practice is in constant response to current events and the wayward actions of humankind.
