ARTIST STATEMENT
Alchemy and visual stimulation have always been a focus of my work. Transformation is a fascination... mixing materials, elements and concepts resulting in something different... hopefully something new... sometimes a variation on proven techniques creating new and varied solutions.
With a background in design the result in my work is frequently graphic and sometimes dramatic - intended to be something that speaks for itself to each viewer.
My work has been varied... enjoying the alchemy of experimentation for expression. Paper making, various forms of print making and painting in a variety of mediums, now including the use of wax in encaustic painting, have all allowed for varied forms of transformation through manipulation of materials and mediums to fuel my curiosity in creating visual interest.
