Picture
Art has a spiritual aspect—it comes from within.  Color is a language in of itself, full of vibration, energy, and expression.  Color is my mode of expression.  Colors are my words.  I paint spontaneously, intuitively, allowing the color to flow in a multitude of possibilities, arranging and rearranging those “words” in an exploration of possibility, to express myself through the language of color. 
An exploration in color, an exploration of possibility, each piece emerges and develops, expressing the joy and energy I experience in the world around me.  My paintings are an invitation to join me in a response to the world.
