The results of the visceral act of applying paint to canvas is what inspires and surprises me. Art seems to be teaching and controlling me rather than me controlling it. I begin with random blade strokes that slowly evolve into abstract compositions. Color is shape and line.

Participation in New York and Southern California group shows: Rogue Gallery, Chelsea; Pratt Manhattan Gallery; DeKalb Gallery, Brooklyn; Museum of the Living Artist; Flor y Canto Gallery; Everett Gee Jackson Gallery; Apogee Gallery; San Diego State University Library; University Heights Arts Open.
