About my Work
My taste in the visual arts has evolved toward a more modern and contemporary look and my own work is reflecting that. As my journey continues, I find myself focusing on the relationships of shape, value, color and line rather than the actual subject. My goal is to be less literal and more expressive and bold in my approach. I continue to explore and experiment with new materials, techniques, and approaches and find each discovery an exciting step toward seeing the world with fresh eyes.
