My artwork is about visual exploration; an assemblage of color, texture and line work reminiscent of my childhood home filled with handwoven multi-dimensional fabrics, rugs and ceramics. My creative passion is experimentation, trial and error, research, serendipity and synchronicity with the goal of rendering mystery or curiosity to the viewer. It is how I read and see the world - Simplified and Abstract. Whether rendered in earthy tones or loud contrasting hues, the work may appear unfiltered or refined, organic or grid like.
