I am convinced that no analyst could probe my psyche quite so
effectively as does the paintbrush. Spontaneously painting to music; lines, shapes, colors, and often
images flow freely, but the basic
elements of design are instinctively applied as I paint. Though my work is not conceptual,
ideas may materialize during the process as images or shapes emerge.
Once this exhilarating phase is finished, compositional adjustments
may be made, but I am careful to retain the energy and freshness of the original brushwork. When I
am finished, there frozen on the
canvas or paper, a composite of my experience is revealed in a brilliant language that can
only be felt, and I am fulfilled. But I am
most gratified when a viewer discerns something personally applicable in the content, and
finds pleasure in the discovery.
