My Images have their origins in the perceptions of .my life experiences, with a concern for the underlying forces and elements that tie me to the Natural World.. Based on my glimpse of the world, I work to find equivalent means to express the feelings and ideas that grab my attention. To me, there is a distinction between what is merely seen and that which is felt and tacitly understood. I continue to believe the marks made, by the artist's hand, can impart intended and unintended elements of thought (e.g., language, memory and ideas) in their every motion.
We can catch glimpses of the truth through our imagination. The truths we garner are not about the world; if they can be said to be about anything, it must be about ourselves, the observers.
