Artist Statement
My abstractions originate from a desire to create and explore the possible dynamics between line, color, shape and grace. The driving force behind this passion for painting is the process of the act rather than the end result or outcome and has been motivated by continuously reinventing myself through my art. My paintings take shape through layers of color and line drawings painted intuitively at the start of every piece, which remain as the structure and subject being painted throughout a workʼs completion. Each line is based on the previous one, and comes to life through impulsive color combinations and artistic decision-making. Although I do not intentionally refer to actual objects or figures, subconscious association of shapes and outlined forms sometimes suggest them. I am inexplicably drawn to the endeavor of creating tension on the canvas and then working steadily to resolve it. (Re-title)
