The two central and concurrent elements in my work are color and mark-making. I am interested in color as an independent means of expressing significant form. Increasingly, I am more aware of my personal mark-making and how it translates into a painting of movement.

My imagery comes from a response to landscape and figures in the landscape. I am interested in painters such as De Kooning who realized the instantaneousness of content.

I work predominately in oil and watercolor. The initial affair is consummated in small watercolor vignettes done 'en plein air' which I later translate to large scale oils on canvas.
