Artist’s Statement

     Nature, science, myth and memory all provide inspiration for my artwork.  With the organic world and architecture serving as constant metaphors, the elements of my art offer visions of microcosm and macrocosm. My recent paintings and prints are evocative of landscapes, skyscapes, and cellular activity.
    
     My artwork is both about nature and of nature. Nature’s creative force is evoked by probing states of dynamic transition in general, and rhythms of individual forms and phenomena in particular. Featured in the upcoming Flinn Gallery show, the Clouds into Water woodcut series explores how we perceive our world:  in four woodblock layers elements of shape, color, and perspective shift and morph into different visions.
