Statement
|
It is my desire to create works of art that elicit an emotional reaction. Through use of dramatic, sometimes unconventional colour and form, I hope to make a meaningful connection with the viewer that enriches and energizes.
I believe that creativity is a simple equation with a very complex impact. The combination of imagination and curiosity are two wonderful gifts that, combined, are larger than the sum of their parts: IMAGINATION + CURIOSITY = CREATIVITY.
Art is therapy. Art is joy. Art is frustration, realization, discovery and enlightenment. And I am thankful for the journey every day.
