| It's the everyday that moves me
into my paintings. I incorporate the usual...
She is urban, local, reflective...
sometimes walking, sitting or simply pausing.
Caressing the shape of the body with a simple mark, allowing the
process to reveal itself, slowly the figure is carved away...
not portraits... imaginary figures... gestures, movements caught in the moment...
sometimes muse inspired, illusions we carry that filter our realities.
Born in New York City
