New Work - April 2 - 26  2008


Artist Statement

My work employs organic abstraction to expose sensuality through the traditional medium of oil paint.   Forms are created out of a compromise between an understanding of self and an indulgence in spontaneity.  Particles fly, biomorphic shapes meander and interact with one another, penetrating the space that surrounds them. Relationships incurred by the fragmentation of line and these co-dependent shapes release a dialogue, which spark conversations across the canvas. I am particularly interested in colour play, configurating palettes which would normally not be seen together.   I invest in the creation of openings and layers to create shallow depth as forms emerge curiously to seek out one another.
