.......Our world is fascinating on every level from the tiniest microscopic organism to the galaxy and beyond......

.......My objective when I create is to be bold enough to expressively challenge the intellect and delight the visual senses, using my narrative form of visual communication.

.......My process in painting creates up to 100+ layers of acrylic on canvas in mixed media collage.  I prefer to use jewel tones of rich vibrant color mixed with sensual curving form, a selection of several rare imported fabrics from Africa and Egypt, combined with pieces of hand-selected symphony sheet music and other unusual rag paper textures with the glaze to create a prism-like effect.  The message is in the form of a riddle for continuous discovery.......

.......If I do my job properly, you will see as I do, that every moment has a different color.  Every time you look at one of my paintings, you should discover something new.  As the secrets of the language and symbolism reveal themselves to you, the process of creation becomes a magical experience.  the artist becomes the viewer and the viewer becomes the artist.  It's my favorite part.......

 As an Art Teacher I try to guide my students in such a way that they find their own voice...
