Artist Statement
Memory is like paper – every recollection creates a new fold that changes its structure forever. We fold our memories over and over, each time removing ourselves further from the original experience. I use the acts of drawing and painting to encode memory and emotion within the visual language of color, shape, and texture. I am currently engaged in material exploration of painterly atmosphere, while retaining the graphic flavor and observational discipline of my earlier work.
