On Painting:
My objective, essentially, is to create a heightened sense of color interaction, to bring a freshness or clarity to the movement of color. To explore that visual illusion of color and space that reawakens our perceptions. One of the major abstract elements begins with my interest in the fluidity and movement of nature and its particular color and light quality. To create a lasting effect in memory; to make an impression, "Imprinting Nature", so to speak. The works become a kind of meditation on sensuality, sorrow, loss and self discovery. The vehicle for exploration and expression can be found in paint or glass.
On Glass:
My objectives, as stated on painting, are the same for Glass. Glass is that three dimensional expression of my need for exploration to complete the cycle of creativity. Glass is a natural choice for it is extremely alive and fluid. The deep connection to nature, our greatest teacher of life, constantly surprises and inspires me to push the limits of glass beyond the realm of understanding. A meditative dance, it influencing me as I influence it, until the collaboration is complete. As Alfredo Barbini once said, "You do not force glass, you follow glass."
