My work begins with the impression of a landscape, whether real, imagined or dreamed. Perhaps it was a fleeting image, as if glimpsed from a speeding car, then remembered and revisited later on.
​The painting emerges out of the color memories, and the shapes appear in the process of layering pigment onto paper or canvas - sometimes one or two layers, sometimes a hundred layers, until my vision is as clear to the viewer as it is to me. I hope that my work will bring light into people's lives,and perhaps reawaken them to the beauty of nature, which is everywhere.
