There are two distinct streams in my work. One is Abstract, the other is Interactive.

Guided by my desire to help others tap into their own creativity and inspired by the field of Interactive Art, I have created a series titled “Re-Create.”

Beginning from my own composition the viewer is invited to trespass beyond looking to touching and ultimately step into the role of artist. With a multiplicity of combinations possible, this new “creator” moves a variety of shapes on a magnetized background resulting in their own unique design. Art moves from being a defined fixed product to an ever-changing and impermanent experience.

My abstract work, on the other end, currently centers around a series titled “Love Always Falls Back On Its Feet.” In each painting, I have deconstructed the word L-O-V-E into lines and circles in various configurations. Yet, as the “E” of love lands at the bottom right of each painting, with constancy and stability, it acts as a reminder that, just like the sun on a cloudy day, love is always present even amidst challenges. In my abstract work, I am interested in how geometric and organic shapes exist on a continuum and how they complement or oppose one another. This dialogue between unplanned gestural raw movement and a decisive line or geometric shape is a fascinating dance.

Stylistically, I am interested in how geometric and organic shapes exist on a continuum, this dialogue between unplanned gestural raw movement and a decisive line or geometric shape is to me a fascinating dance.

My medium is alcohol ink. The intensity and beauty of the colors as well as the flowing, organic nature of the ink is to me magical and a source of wonder.

To me, the process of painting or realizing an image (abstract or interactive) is tumultuous and a magical process. This embrace with life and its mysteries always connects me back to Henry Miller’s words… “To paint is to love again.”
