Approaching every day with an open mind and an open heart.

 

I gain inspiration from my sleeping and waking dreams and embrace their capacity to connect the physical and metaphysical realms.

 
 

forces of nature

 “Forces of Nature,” features a body of work celebrating the most basic elemental forces which connect all things in our ecosystem. Masses of color and form collide with lines and shapes expressing a sense of energy and rhythm which exist in the spaces between the macro and micro cosmos.

 

meditations

The “Meditations” series of paintings focuses spontaneity, humor and dynamism as expressed through Zen inspired paintings which visually convey the vital essence of a thought or mood. Some pieces include the ensō, also known as a Zen circle, to communicate the meditative process of focusing on one moment in time: accepting it and showing gratitude to the energy of that single moment and releasing it in a single brushstroke.

 

whimsies

This collection is a representation of my explorations and studies: a celebration of the animals in our lives, of our bodies, and of the world around us.
