I paint to express and share my sense of wonder.  My process, sometimes intellectual and sometimes intuitive, consists of working and reworking shapes and colors towards an expressive whole that will have the power to evoke emotion, sensuality, and spirituality.  My art reflects my abiding optimism and faith in the order of our world.

My intent is to create artworks that not only elicit an immediate response, but also that will reveal more of themselves gradually over time.  I use several techniques to disclose by degrees previously unobserved elements, to reframe and visually redraw the surface, and hopefully to bring about reevaluation of previous conclusions.  I invite the viewer to leisurely perusals, with an openness to surprise, delight, and a kindling of the imagination.
