My art is a meditation on tranquility and beauty.
As an abstract painter I work from a felt sense of the everyday things that surround me; the colors, shapes and emotions that present themselves. A self taught painter, over the past 20 years I have learned that a painting emerges in twists and turns as I open myself to the materials and the process. Painting is an act of presence, surrender and surprise.
Without question, we live in challenging times. It is my hope that my work can help you create a personal sanctuary to help weather the storms.
The creative adventure is always reckless.
- Jospeh Campbell
Mystery is such an underrated quality in this modern world yet it is a vital part of our aliveness. There is so much in this universe that we simply don't understand. I believe that if a painting speaks to you, it is because somehow you have connected with the deeper layers of mystery that it came from.
I believe in the transformative power of art to inspire, heal and elevate your surroundings.
I hope my work can support your personal evolution and enjoyment of life. Maybe a small glance up from your desk will reinvigorate you or make you smile or just breathe.
Where Have They Gone?
My work is in homes from Norway and Scotland to the US, Canada and Singapore. It has appeared in Tricycle Magazine, Buddhadharma Magazine and on the cover of the book “Lotus Petals In The Snow." Two small works are in the Postal Art Collection of The National Museum of Canada.
