My work is about creating a feeling of deep calm, soft stillness, expansive space and tranquility, a sense of equanimity, a secret to take rest.

The process is one of transmuting paint into lyrical expressions of color and mood. I see color and composition as my primary modes of communication.

My studio in Santa Fe looks out to the Sangre de Christo Mountains; recently I have been exploring the shapes of clouds in all of their many moods, bathed in rose reflected sunset light as well as the lavenders and deep blues of dusk

I am interested in simplifying the landscape forms of ground plane, sky plane and horizon line to achieve a sense poetic abstraction.
