Artist Statement:
“The artist Wayne Thiebaud calls painting ‘life as a bravura stroke’. I take that as my mantra, look at ordinary objects and attempt to move the viewer in unexpected ways.
My paintings take license with color and shape in the form of semi-abstract marks and gestures. I’m more concerned with the movement or energy the forms take than a representation of the objects themselves. I want to take the viewer on a ride to a place between realism and expressionism. A place that feels fresh and joyful like music or dance when all the elements are aligned and you are very much ‘in the zone’.”
