Statement:
My paintings are maps of memories that are in dialogue with one another. Colors and shapes evolve organically and bring each painting, with its own distinct composition and feeling, to life. I am guided by the process of layering paint, and excavating and unearthing earlier layers, until the moment arrives when everything seems to fall into place.
Art, like music, can unlock frozen memories that melt into seeds of creativity, transporting us to magical places.
