My inspiration for the work I do came in the late 1990s after viewing work by artist Bill Jensen…work he had created during a residency in Italy. I was so taken by the surface of his paintings that I began a search for my own special surface. Grinding pigments to make my own paint I built layer upon layer of color. This layering resulted in a surface rich in color, skin-like in appearance and suggested a glimmer of light rising from within. These paintings were simple and pure. In 2001 the introduction of line moved my paintings along a path that began to raise new questions. Is it the line that creates form or the form that creates line? What is line? Is it a measure? Is it a color? Is it a vestige of a transverse plane? Is it a directional signifier? How fast is it moving? What is color? How does it interact with line? Is it emotional? Is it abstract? Is it aesthetic? Does it give weight to the various parts of the painting? Can it share equal weight with lines? The lines in my paintings have multiplied and changed their course many times over the years. In the most recent work lines travel together in parallel weaving throughout the canvas in a bold and energetic way, they reach out beyond the very boundaries of the canvas. My attention to surface and color remain constant.
