Artist Statement

 

My three-dimensional watercolors combine color, pattern and abundant negative space. Raising young children has influenced my outlook on art making – in some ways, my art is an attempt to elevate the experiences of fun, naiveté, day dreaming and discovery to the level of fine art.

 

I also enjoy the language of abstraction and I have a classical approach to the fundamental appearance of my work, but I hope it doesn’t end there. Though I rely on stalwart design principles, like harmony, variety, direction and color theory…what I really want is to confront an object in evolution - something outside conventional classification. To me this better represents reality.
