My Paintings
In 1990 I began painting again experimenting with color, line and geometric shapes. Influenced by color field painting, I decided to make color, the language of emotion and energy, the defining element in my paintings.
However, in the late 1990s I had an opportunity to create an installation. This led to three more, ending in 2005. I continued to paint but my output was small due to the time required to create the installations and later unanticipated events. The first series of paintings that I was satisfied with and shown on this site represent what I consider to be the best of my work from the 1990s and 2006 to the present.
My goal is to present a purely visual space in which color and line create an illusion of movement that envelopes the viewer eliciting a visceral response.
