My works reveal the places that are redolent of memories of nature throughout my life. Continued imaginings of southern landscape from my past coupled with presently living at the foot of the Rocky Mountains influence my work. My introspective paintings are about discovering place and crafting it. I use acrylic paint on stretched canvas, mostly palette knife with some brush, large scrapers, water, and rags. I use a lot of paint, pushing and pulling to form heavy texture and diffuse lines. I believe that art is integration of form and feeling, and that relying too much on one or the other can come across confusing and leave the viewer unsatisfied. But when a balance and harmony of the two emerges the viewer experiences a vibration that is palpable and moving. To do this, I believe rather than paint a painting or create art I must show up and work, not think, and incorporate many intervals of stepping back and sitting with each piece in progress.
