Anesthetize Print

I am an empath. Words cannot describe my art. Emotions tell a bigger story. I tell my stories through paintings inspired by all forms of nature, my imagination and music. Gestural abstraction is my chosen discipline because of the freedom I feel painting loosely using my emotions. My intent is to evoke curiosity from every sense. Joy, peace, serenity, maybe even occasional dark. I like to achieve incredible depth through texture and color. I bring my soul into each painting by titling the pieces with song. My love of music is only surpassed by my love of art. Visual inspiration is a beautiful garden, breathtaking sunsets or a fabulous landscape. When creating on wood panels, the grain of the wood is oftentimes inspiration alone. I enjoy a minimalist approach to watercolor and gouache painting. I use a special scraping technique on dry paper. I use water, brush, palette knife or air to move the paint. Although I am only creating commissioned work on wood now, I am one of a few artists in the country creating abstract art on wood panels with colored stains. The stain is applied directly to bare wood and my hands are my biggest paintbrush. On occasion I work with a brush for detail and for accenting my pieces with alcohol ink or pigment. Abstract brings my world and your world together by allowing each individual to see and feel their own story. Primary emotions of a color-infused visual are followed with secondary emotions evoked by “hearing” the music or remembering the lyrics from select pieces’ carefully researched song titles. This art will connect you to the experience of a memory in another time in your head and heart each time you view it. Available for commissions.
