About the Item

PUBLIC COLLECTIONS Boca Raton Museum Of Art, Boca Raton, FL MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, Texas University Of North Texas, Business Leadership Building, Denton, Texas St. Regis Hotel, NYC, NY Hard Rock Hotel, Tampa, FL Artist Statement My paintings emerge from the emotion I feel in the moment my brush touches a blank surface. I am a very physical and spontaneous painter. Moving back and forth with decisive brush strokes and dynamic gestures, I work rapidly to capture that ephemeral feeling in tangible form. I begin without expectations and work on a subconscious level that disregards logic. Guided by a primal inner voice, I surrender control to the paint, the brush and a visceral process of creative discovery. I apply many layers to my paintings leaving evidence of early marks as a sense of my progression. I observe everything in my life in great detail and am heavily influenced by nature, in particular the sky. My mark-making, though serendipitous, reflects these influences. I want the viewer to believe that my vision expands beyond the work itself to a universe I have created. Painting in the genre of Abstract Expressionism, I feel a strong affinity for artists such as Joan Mitchell and Willem De Kooning, whose work also emphasizes action and emotion over ideas. Like these artists, I strive to capture the fleeting, spontaneous quality of "alla prima" painting in my work.
