Extended Profile

Artist Statement

I am interested in imagery that refers to natural forms and the energy that creates them.  I am also interested in the formal and conceptual relationships with more geometric and manmade forms.  In the combination of these ideas my work oscillates between representation and abstraction.  The themes of \‘growth\’ and \‘balance\’ figure prominently in my current work.
