Artist Statement
Being a native of western North Carolina, I feel that my subconscious is finely tuned to the gentle rhythms of nature. Although life has dictated that I live in diverse environments, I find a stronger connection to the spiritual when surrounded by nature and aspire to express that in my work. I have a relationship with strong dynamic light, colors, spiritually romantic themes and the landscape of form. I hope that my work will enable the viewer to sense a higher connection to the spiritual that is so often lost in the stresses of daily life.
