“My art is about capturing a moment in time as I observe
movement and all forms of natural energy around me, human and
otherwise.
I love to observe the movements of the clouds as the earth, wind and
sun shift them around with the result being changes in light and color
that create new scapes constantly. I find them both spiritual and a
link to the great power of nature that dwarfs us. I work in both oil
and acrylic and fiber to achieve successive layering and blending of
color needed to create the gradations of both light and color in my
work.
I also seek to capture an aspect of the complexity and flow of human
movement as I observe dance and/or humans at work. There is a visceral
and raw energy that emanates from man and woman when dancing, working
or in an emotional state that I see and bring to my work.
In the case of the working man or woman, the essence of the human
energy I paint is that which I witness coming from within that person
as they focus and link to their intention and vision.
In the case of dancers, spontaneous dance is often an expression of a
spectrum of inner energies from extreme joy to fury or despair. Having
studied ballet and modern dance as a girl, I particularly relate to the
free form and release of movement.
I hope you enjoy my work.”
