My primary compositions are landscapes and non-representational forms. I work with these subjects in order to express and explore visual depth in my work using a variety of media and line-making. I am compelled to work quickly and intuitively; lines of rich color and graphite moving freely between the planes in my work - foreground merging with background and connecting separate objects and tangential thoughts.
In my work, light and shadows break apart into their elements: colors and lines. I capture them on my panels of wood using a combination of highly saturated wax-oil pastels and graphite layered with a variety of acrylic washes. These heightened contrasts of color and value are the reflection of my transitory thoughts, each flaring briefly before fading away.
