Artist's
Statement
Over
the past thirty-five years my artwork has progressed from Post-Impressionism
to Figurative Abstraction to Colorfield Expressionism. This style
of art uses the overlaying of colors on geometrical planes to create
spatial compositions that are very metaphoric and to some, abstruse.
Each work is a continual search and discovery of feeling and consciousness
of the universal implications of the abstract multitude, rather
than that of an individual repose. The painting encourages and
challenges the viewer to associate with the humanistic qualities
of needs, desires and emotions, of the social, spiritual and environmental
aspects of us all and the quandary of the boundaries of historical
and didactic functions that can ensnare not only the person but
also the soul.
