born 1969, Indianapolis, Indiana
Statement
My work investigates the mysteries of color in landscapes and interiors, and how these spaces become expressive sanctuaries.
I create my paintings as places and worlds I want to live in and explore. I'm often drawn to the sea, to forests, and to gardens.
I seek harmonies in color and light.
If people are present, they serve to guide the viewer into the space of the painting. The people and places may not be nameable, but they evoke a specific experience of the world that is common to all of us.
