Artist’s Statement

“I am fascinated with the evocative nature of color and how the perception of color forms a subjective response. It is estimated that the human eye can distinguish a range of 10 million hues. This fact is exhilarating to me as an artist because it means that there exist an infinite number of color combinations, interactions and possibilities to pursue in paint.   I am also interested in pattern, particularly those that are composed by the tessellation of a single element. The methodical repetition induces a sense of peacefulness only to be lost and regained due to the fact that the hand can never attain perfect regularity. My intention is to explore how color coupled with intricate compositions work towards, or against, a pleasurable experience.“
