The recent body of work over the last decade may have been inspired by my diving, but I want the canvases to feel as though they are in the act of creation themselves. Colors merge to become sentient beings, bubbles become heads, patterns emerge as forms that are at once beautiful and potentially menacing. They are hybrids, combining elements of figure and landscape into abstract compositions. The layered strokes and marks of color shape an image more discovered then planned. World travel influences, the cities, locals, figures and faces meld with nature, creating patterns with the possibility of forms materializing. These images are an alternate reality, one that mirrors our own as a window into another reality. A world of reflections, a mirror image of memory creating a place imaged.
