I am in love with light. Light creates shadow patterns; it bounces off of one object and splashes color onto another object. It can pass through the delicate spray of an ocean wave, yet reflect off a thin pane of glass. It is what motivates me to create a painting.

I love the versatility of paint as a medium. By thinning the paint down, luminous washes can be created; applied thickly, the color takes the spotlight. Although I often start with a plan, I allow insights along the way to inform my next decision. I develop a language with which to translate my view of the world around me.

My hope is that my paintings create an oasis for the viewer that helps them celebrate the good in their life and to connect with a memory or emotion of their own.
