Artist Statement

Within the context of abstraction, I am constantly inventing a new vocabulary that employs gesture, form and notation, and uses the intensity of color as a mystical guide. The gestures that unite and energize my work have become increasingly more calligraphic and address a language that is private, intense and consistently self referential.
