(Scroll down for works)
Images enter my mind both day and night.
I
often feel compelled to express them as
quickly as they come.
I work
intuitively.
The more time advances, the more
reticent I
feel toward verbalizing my art. I feel similarly to Jean
Cocteau who once said, “ An artist cannot speak about
his art any
more than a plant can discuss horticulture.”
When I begin a painting, I have no definitive destination.
Rather,
while I work I encourage subliminal ideas
and cosmic forces to
collaborate with the process.
What I am
hoping to achieve when I paint is a sense
of mystery and beauty - I wish
to create a vision
that not even I, the creator, fully understands.
I usually describe my imagery as Magical Realism.
I want to transport
the viewer into an altered state
of consciousness where he or she may be
inclined
to experience who they truly are when they are free
of
mundane thoughts.
My paintings act as mirrors or Rorschach tests,
the viewer perceiving
the images filtered
through their own reality.
