Creating ‘visual language’ through art reflects my fascination with the primal, symbiotic

relationship between humanity and the natural world. In my paintings, I juxtapose organic

elements, natural patterns and shapes with more abstract and imaginative landscapes

– using color, layers of rich texture, collages of digital manipulated photographs, textual

 material, and found objects to reflect the infinite beauty of a sentient natural world.

My creative process is spontaneous and intuitive, responding to weathered surfces that

reveal a sense of history — time passing, celebtating an aesthetic of imperfection. My painting

is at once abstract and figurative, balancing ambiguity with the familiar, in a style that

allows elemental forms to evoke a transcendent reality.
