I find great possibility in ambiguity embracing the shades of grey between black and white. Art is a beautifully vulnerable, flexible discipline that begs to be stretched. The sense of quiet stillness in my work creates a unique effect, allowing the piece not only to speak, but also to listen. Each viewer's relationship to the work gives a story back to be forever kept within the crevassas of the artwork; I like to think of my work as infused with these exchanges. Ideas of time are explored as my work seams together elements of old and new. Processes of layering different media and applying ancient Buddhist traditions of gold leaf can evoke snapshots of memories representative of life journeys through time. Each piece helps me to honor the past and to shape the future, learning more in the contact of brush to canvas than I ever thought possible.
