ARTIST STATEMENT

Whether figurative or abstract, I make process art using paints, inks, found papers and other media. My process is spontaneous and freeing even as it requires concentration. Each piece represents a journey through fragmentation and chaos to a sense of completion. I don’t confine myself to a genre, but I will share abstract pieces in the Art Stroll.
