Artist Statement: 

Myriad conditions of light created by the time of day and the weather illuminate textures in the water, patterns in the clouds, and juxtapositions of color that richly vibrate with one another to form the visual experience of the landscape. The morning light slowly eases up over the horizon, gently lighting the clouds, and later seen from the same vantage, the evening fire of the sunset races through the darkening sky. These dynamic combinations of light, shape, pattern. and color inspire my work.

I enjoy the manipulation of materials and how process in itself contributes to the life and form of the final image. In my recent acid etched tin pieces, areas of watery marks are left visible to further suggest the underlying layers of the landscape.
