My artwork is inherently suggestive of landscape, although the geography is not specific. These landscapes are unpopulated. The work evolves and develops with a consideration of space and a use of color that suggests and refers to natural elements. Certainly, I have a colorist's concerns, although my color choice is based on instinct and feeling. I use color to give my composition a sense of mood and place that is remembered rather than observed."
