Artist's Statement
Our universe is essentially an explosion of Creative Power.
My art is but a fragment of this original Divine, intentional and cosmic burst of creative and loving energy.
I see the world as a continually evolving masterpiece of sky, sea, earth, and humanity.
I believe that all beauty, life, and art comes from our Trinity God who designed all things. It is an amazing gift that we humans are able to ingest various aspects of this life and recognize it as art.
I paint because I am compelled to communicate my unique mental and spiritual appreciation of the beauty that surrounds me.
My art work is driven by meticulous observation and a process of interpretive color mixing and mark making that conveys my enthusiasm for my subject matter’s raw beauty.
I am particularly compelled by the world of water. It’s depth, mystery, power, and vastness symbolize to me the encompassing God that created it. The varieties of aesthetic qualities that it contains are numerous enough to keep my process engaged and experimental through multiple mediums.
My art celebrates the incredible gift of life through color contrast, intricate and flowing line work, and a wide variety of nature inspired subject matter. My goal is to bring joy to my viewers and to use the universal language of art to generate recognition and praise for the source of all life, the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
