Artist's Statement:
"By manipulating color, form, and texture I describe my subject's being. My painting applications create lively gestures and sincere sensitivities, which when combined, create my means of visual communication. My work represents my direct impressions of whom or what my subject is composed of. I intend to induce the viewer to absorb and contemplate my subject's personal and descriptive, yet subtle, captions, which is specific to my work."
