| Artist's
Statement and Images |
| My
paintings are a series of glimpses. A glimpse is a moment gone
that cannot be retrieved but for a keen eye and sharp memory.
A glimpse can be foggy and non-descript. At times it is clear
yet soft around the edges. This work is representative of my
search for an ever-evolving expression of permanence and memory.
Permanence is part of a sense of place, it is what endures.
In my work, permanence is discovered through thoughtful reflection
upon a glimpse of the moment. A slice of space is made permanent
by recording its memory.

I look most often to the spaces I travel through each day.
The authentic places that I inhabit, however temporary, are
the driving force behind much of my work. I catch a glance
of light that makes me stop and catch my breath. The inherent
beauty of that minute makes me think I will always remember
the place, the instant and my connection to it. I look away
for a second, turn back, and it is gone. These paintings are
a walk through temporal points and slivers of space.

The use of a glazing technique is new to me. This process
allows me to work with paint in much the same way a role of
film develops. Each painting is a step towards resolution.
Visually each painting becomes clearer and emotionally each
landscape becomes more permanent. The paint begins to hold
the light in much the same way that a memory holds the moment,
in a slightly viscid fluidity.
