Making art for me is a way of interacting with the world and, in the process, to discover deeper truths.  I am continuously in flux as the world changes, demanding that I too change.  As I adapt to transformations that occur outwardly, I respond with an inner shift in vision and my artwork reflects these changes.  Searching for meaning beneath the surface requires a deeper kind of looking.  It is this quest that keeps me in the process of creating.

In the past, I have used the image of the human face as a vehicle to discover how life impacts the "self".  At other times, being provoked by world events, I was interested in the nature of duality.  How can the "truth" wear so many disguises.  How can two identical looking images change because of the narrative that is created regarding its "truth".  Perception is distorted; the eye is deceived.

Most recently, I have left the image of the human form for a more primitive image, that of rocks and stones.  I have become absorbed with the different symbolic structures that can be created by the repetition of a single form.  Each composition becomes symbolic to me of endurance and strength in spite of the chaos of the outside world, places to hide to remain "safe".  Each narrative sheds light on a different outcome when faced with external destruction.
