Artist Statement

Color, design, the figure, buildings and inanimate objects are the primary elements of my paintings. Symbols and shapes which represent my personal artistic journey, ie; my fascination with clocks and numbers, enable me to tell my story without portraying the final chapter. These elements are painted in watercolor, acrylic, and/or other water based material in an abstract format. Watermedia has been my medium of choice since the early 1980’s. Prior to that time, starting in 1963, I worked in oil, pen and ink and pastels. Most recently I have included found collage elements in much of my work. “I am an emotional painter and it is my desire to convey that idea to the viewer.”
