Simple forms are consistent in all my artwork and I enjoy working in series offering relationships, discovery and contrasts.

My paintings are built of many thin layers of oil bar and/or oil paint beginning with a limited palette of bold colors on large canvases or wood panels. Subsequent layers allow the under-paint to peek through and transparent glazes give the final surface a subtle tint. I enjoy working with new mediums and am always exploring new subjects, layering and surface finishes.

With each work, I invite the viewer to first look at the simplicity of the image, then beyond, opening a door to the imagination.
