About Me:

I am a Painter, Sculptor and an Assemblage artist, I find my treasures in remnants of wood and metal, books, boxes, old paintings, toys all that have been discarded are Intriguing to me.
Conceptually my Art is somewhere between Abstract and completely non-objective. At times there seem to be recognizable images and objects in my paintings, but these visuals lack definite boundaries and oscillate between possibilities. I am Interested in the Visual and Aesthetic Tension that occurs when perception is not absolutely clear. I utilize both a control of the medium and an allowance for the Accidental. Shifts of the image occur while I work and become part of the finished piece. Thus the completed painting is my response to the unsettling relationship between random acts and carefully planned decisions. In every work I am concerned with the physical properties of the material and the metaphorical content of the image.
I paint on them (varied surfaces) with great passion as they are transporters holding great energy and excitement for me... What is interesting is this idea of the personal found object rather than the simple random selection of the mundane . Besides there is a strong bent towards Eco Consciousness. Recycling is the way to go for our materialistic civilization! I love the idea of incorporating our environment into the work. There is beauty in everything and I put it together so that the viewer can see it. I think that’s what makes My Art compelling…
