Artist's Statement |
|
My
work is a continuing search for subjects which can strike
an emotional chord: The feeling of looking far down on the
pathways of flowing rivers or streams, the colors and shapes
that convey the majesty and mystery of deep caverns, the awe-
someness of windswept clouds, the explosion of waves breaking
against rocks, the peaceful flow of water in marshes. In my
search for visual reality, I work without the constructs of
perspective which could obstruct my painterly concerns. Since
the universal circle is my personal visual symbol, I include
it in all my work. Sometime it is dominant. At other times
it is sug- gested in a texture or in lines added or removed.
For periods of time, I have worked in various two- and three-dimensional
media, i.e.: Wood, steel, oil paint, acrylics, aqua pencil,
encaustic and mixed media. Now I can enjoy searching my experience
for the medium to fit the message. For me, art must appeal
to the intellect, the emo- tions and the nonverbal. In talking
about my work, if words can't express it all, my search is
successful.
