"Discovery comes through the process of painting. Inspiration starts with a mark, a color, a form, a layer, and it builds from there. I refuse to be bound by a specific direction or an expected outcome. Each of us is profoundly different - peace begins when expectations end. We are all on our own path. I choose to walk the path of creativity. My work speaks of this path of discovery; it speaks of the unknown, of the pure pleasure of form, of line, of color."
