My most recent body of work consists mostly of oil, wax and plaster on panel utilizing a modified fresco technique named A Secco. In my 1300 square foot studio (MUSE Ranch) the paintings evolve through the application of layered materials, gesture making, dragging and scraping. A surface is established that is new and exciting and inspires the next journey of rediscovery. The development of my art has been a long and continuous, intuitive journey; a voyage of experimentation, exploration and evolution. Relocating to the rural mountains north of Los Angeles from a suburban CA community in 2004 has influenced my aesthetic in terms of balance and space and color, spontaneity and order, with a merging of concepts between minimalism and expression.
