My art is within the field of abstraction. Inspired by nature and by water in our surroundings, I seek to create artwork that expresses movement and is directed by color and light. Bright colors are an important element in my creation. Blue is the predominant color I use in my work, because it is often associated with the sea and sky, or heavens. Through the use of color, shape and patterning, and by using different materials, I strive to express energy and gestural quality in my paintings, and to investigate the notion of transforming subjective ideas into objects of art.
In my mosaics and paintings, I have been developing a movement style of pushing and pulling through brush strokes, and smalti tesserae, small glass bits that I break with a hammer and hardie, or crush, to create colorful powder to apply in my compositions. It is a constant search for interplay with the space to create physical and virtual movements that are capable of awakening the senses.
