I am an artist enjoying the world through various aqueous mediums and vivid pigments. My paintings are not precisely about color or formal relationships but attempt to express basic human emotions. In my work I try to embody an emotion or feeling that arose in a specific situation. I want the viewer to be embraced by color as if they could dive in and swim through pools of color and waves of tints and shadows. My working method begins on un-stretched canvas approached as if there was a near infinite ability to scroll from left to right. After working the canvas I tear away the un-sized edges. Because there is no set destination for my painting, I feel that more of myself can then flow into the work: my eye, hand and ‘heart’ in equal measure. There is no need to dwell on the destination but instead concentrate on the process.
