oil 30 x 24 x 1.5" The world I encounter daily brings me in touch with the delights of colors and shapes. Rounded forms have, of late, stimulated participation in the circular movements of life – the coming round to something or spinning out of control. I bounce, roll, wobble, and delight in using color to enhance this movement and give the shapes a dynamic, often tactile, visual effect.

oil on canvas 30 x 24 x 1.5" My current interest is in the expression of emotional reactions to my environment -- the context of my experience of events or ideas. My vision of the world is pared down to its essence and the abstractions that emerge in this series inform my own understanding of the way in which I encounter the world. My personal milieu and my engagement within it form an organizing framework for explorations of evocative anecdotes – suggestions of being in a particular place and in a particular state of mind.

Photography 15 x 15"I want to capture the fast-paced dynamics of New York City Street life. What is exciting and energizes me is how spontaneous the process is, and unpredictable people are. Some are completely unaware of being photographed, some may see me and try to pose or wave, others may be hostile to what they consider an intrusion. I will sometimes stop and ask someone if I can photograph them. Generally, I like to photograph on sunny days, which increases contrast in light and shadows. Places with interesting forms, light, and street geometry provide a good background and foreground to the people I choose to photograph.

ink on wood, graphite on rice paper with gold, copper and silver foil 12 x 12 x 1.5" I find in inspirational to work with new and different materials as a figurative artist. I had many books of foil that my father had given me, and I thought it would be wonderful to incorporate them into a piece of art, while think of my father while doing so. Foil is difficult medium to use, and I wanted to feel that I was using it in a new way. I inked wood with Chinese ink to give depth and worked from there. I then worked graphite on Chinese paper to get the effect I wanted. I have 2 more work to make a series of 3.

paste & ink on Arches paper 42 x 108" Quoddy I was created in the summer of 2022. I drove to downeast Lubec, Maine and over several days, I made ten "walk and draw" studies as I explored the trail there. There is a strong Japanese inspiration here in the simplified shapes. At the same time, in almost a cubist manner, I combine different views into one sweeping, overall view. The sunset in the back shows this shift of time and color. I also add Japanese kanji into the piece, to flatten the space and add eternal meanings. The ink is added after blending 20 layers of pastel.

acrylic on canvas 15.5 x 16.5 x 1.5" My work is all about New York. The sense of belonging, and the desperation felt whenever I'm not in New York. It is about finding the place where I feel like myself. My work seeks to ask the viewer: ‘what is it that you desire? Where is it that you’d wish you could be? Where are you the happiest? What are you doing or where are you when you are your most authentic self? Who would you so dearly wish that would appear in front of you? What dreams do you have? What keeps you moving forward? Through my paintings I hope the viewer will engage in a conversation that could also relate to their own personal story, their own memories, their own personal questions, hopes, and aspirations.

acrylic on canvas board 20 x 16" Many times, I have visited Alaska and was enchanted and inspired by winter's beauty of nature showing off frozen dreams and abstract realities. Although that time of the year can certainly be harsh, it still offers the view of unique magnificence. It motivated me to paint Baby, It's Cold Outside. The cool shades of blue make underline the feeling of extreme cold. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between artist and buyer after the purchase.

acrylic on paper 6 x 4" Working primarily with acrylic, one of my passions is to explore different surfaces, media and techniques creating new challenging endeavors. I love the experimentation and the inspiring dynamics. Besides the exuberant energy of colors, material and texture I also get a lot of inspiration by the ambiance and my personal emotions. What an extraordinary sensation it is to experience the energy we all are surrounded by and then to translate it into a painting! This is a continuing, intimate process. Listening to my inner voice has become a very important part of my creativity; yet, it is never an easy task to do. Last but not least, there is the always-possible element of surprise adding a unique, special effect to my abstract artwork. The combination and interaction of all these factors affect my work deeply by making it strong and powerful. There are no boundaries in art. To me, this synthesis is my art.

jpeg from large-format inkjet printer with plaster, pastel, charcoal, and pencil superimposed on the surface 12 x 16" Informed by relics of different historical cultures, my work suggests ideal forms as they exist in nature, the human figure and the man-made world. It imparts a fascination with archeology as it reveals traces of previous life, and offers clues to the distant past. My pieces imply a multi-planar reality, and a duality of time: past and present. This is presented in a structure in which overlapping and interlocking planes emphasize compressed space. Layers of fragmented, repeated images, transparencies of forms, and multifaceted colliding energies all contribute to a sense of time intersecting with space.
