Using color and layers of texture, I offer the viewer freedom to interpret my work with inner vision. I strive to bring to light the reality that lives deep within, beyond what one can see with outer sight. The creative process does not end with the physicality of the painting, but is continued and enhanced through the eyes of each beholder into the creation of thoughts and emotions it brings out in them; this is a magic dance of connection.

Often I will paint over a canvas many times, creating layers and textures of richness and depth. A recurring symbol, a swath of glossy red, represents joy, power, energy and love; a recurring theme of “openings” symbolizes overcoming the individual’s feelings of separation with a spiritual metamorphosis, or awakening.
