Artist Statement
While painting, my goal is to depict the essence of an idea but not to copy it. Strong color is used, too, and sometimes those colors are not realistic to the viewer not willing to stretch their imagination. My hope is to help the viewer to see the world around with “new eyes” - to see purple in the water and trees, when they normally wouldn’t, to connect to their surroundings in a new way or to visually go somewhere new. Sometimes, by stirring up a memory, it takes them someplace in the past. While my flowers take careful planning, the landscapes and fish are done with a more direct and spontaneous energy. I find there’s nothing like painting on location to get this creativity flowing, and it’s not uncommon for several hours to pass by and I’m still feeling the excitement of immersing myself in my environment through the medium of applying paint to paper or canvas.
