I work in many mediums, with a goal to liberate color and lines from being purely descriptive to becoming free and expressive – suggesting emotion rather than a simple documentation of what the eye sees. I let the imaginative process conceive abstraction with energy, color, and feeling. My art is informed and inspired by travels around the world as well as every-day events in daily life. While my works range from portraits and still-lifes to abstracts, my preference is for semi-abstracts that allow creative freedom while still conveying some form.
