| statement: |
I am constantly chasing the elusive equilibrium between form and formlessness… convinced that true beauty hangs in the balance. The chase involves dancing with the unknown: allowing an image to unfold rather than plodding along in a deliberate linear fashion. My creative process is a continual cycle of creation and destruction, so what ends up on the canvas is as much about what's been added as what's been taken away.
Rather than in concepts and metaphors, I sense divinity lurking just beneath the ordinary. I'm seduced by moments of the day when the atmosphere takes on a dramatic quality and form begins to blur into abstraction. When the late day sun breaks through a veil of fog, blinding white, or car headlights first puncture the blue dusk, there's a sublime sense of mystery. Hard lines are obscured, concrete forms dissolve, and defining reality is left to the imagination. This is where I live.
