Artist Statement:
Color, design, the figure, buildings and inanimate objects are the primary elements of my paintings. Symbols and shapes which represent my personal artistic journey, i.e., my fascination with clocks and numbers, enable me to tell my story without portraying the final chapter. These elements are painted in watercolor, acrylic, and/or other waterbased materials in an abstract format. Watermedia has been my medium of choice since the early 1980s. Prior to that time, starting in 1963, I worked in oils, pen and ink and pastels. “I am an emotional painter and it is my desire to convey that idea to the viewer.”
