California Dreamin’

Artist Statement

I am constantly working and creating directly on the canvas and feel my innate knowledge of my physical work has recently surpassed my intellectual capacity to describe every step. Nature, as always, plays a huge influence in my vision, perhaps more literally now than before, but I am working from memory and intuition, as opposed to photographs or plein aire. Texture, line and composition play equally with loose color fields and soft S-curves. The new abstracts and abstract landscapes are, I’m sure, one more bridge to my next series.
