I recently began my journey back to creating ART after many years. Creating abstract works is the best way to express my feelings and emotions. Quote:
The main objective of art is to communicate - to inspire thought, elicit feeling, and intrigue by virtue of its creation. Its ability to do so distinguishes the good from the great. My most recent body of work clearly illustrates not only the elati
on and pleasure of the creative process, but also the endless facets of life itself; its planning and spontaneity, its ups and downs, brights and darks are all translated into coherent, expressive mixed media works. Their creation is catalyzed by the liberating capacities of music, their statements descriptive of life. Intellect and instinct work in harmony by joining together the geometric and the gestural, the choice and the accident. Open spaces co-exist with confined ones, and motion interacts with stillness. Each painting is a constant discovery, leading the eye on a visual journey in which each plane is distinctively different, yet somehow related. My mixed media works directly parallel the diverse qualities of life. The harmonious interplay of shape, space, color and texture enables me to achieve what is the ultimate synthesis of intellect and instinct. Guided by music, intention precedes risk, and intuition becomes knowledge. The results are exuberant and exciting paintings that both challenge and reflect our lives and environments. To cultivate original improvisation requires courage, energy and mastery of the medium. The developing beauty of honesty must be appreciated.
