These works are created from a place of open spontaneity.

My focus is to be light and free while in the midst of painting. I do this by leaving parts of the initial gesture visible.

The finished work is revealed when I can stop at any given interval of either few or numerous painting sessions. This decision occurs when I shift from maker to viewer. When space, movement, and color interactions build through layering and erasure an object of contemplation that somehow conveys many things I think about and study.

My influences are a montage of personal and collective anxiety of current events, my own sensory impressions, and the influence of the landscape. I live minutes away from the Gulf of Mexico and have spent hours staring into an illusive horizon line where sky meets water.
