artist statement

“In the 1960’s, my first academic experience was grounded in American abstraction. Over the years I have explored various styles from figurative narratives to minimalist statements and have developed techniques in using mixed media combinations that are often stabilized within a grid.   My latest work returns to early roots that rely on the unconscious, the primal nature of mark making connecting mind and body. I consider every struggle an adventure, a pathway to new expression. My end goal remains personal satisfaction in the process itself.”
