Artist’s Statement
My work is an exploration of geometric abstraction through the medium of painted collage. A non-objective approach allows me the freedom for serious play. A tango of color, line and form is paramount. I unconsciously borrow from an ingrained, life-long interest in design, architecture, decorative art and textiles. My work is a satisfying combination of controlled linear design with random drawing and painting. I rely on intuition, repetition and a sensitivity to my own visual experiences, and am attentive to the possibilities that arise and give way to unexpected pairings of shape and color. What emerges is work that balances the forces of simplicity and complexity.
