I am intrigued with complex and expansive space on a flat surface. The painting process I use creates the unexpected for me. By pouring and pushing paint, I can engage in the element of surprise often using a bright and intense palette, or through my continued passion for black and white. Employing undulating, bleeding, and layering, my paintings are inspired by the mysteries of outer space and what astronauts often refer to as “inner space” (the skies and the sea).
