For me, making art is a playful and a magical experience, applying discipline and skill to my imaginative vision. The exploration of pure color is a constant in my work. In my flat work, I create signs and symbols that serve as a language. I believe that all great art involves looking into the unknown, ineffable mysteries of our heart and mind. There is a saying that all art is modern at the time it is made. On the other hand, without a sense of history, work cannot be consciously original. It takes more than self-awareness to escape the tyranny of tradition. I see my gallery as a place where taste and serious art really can co-exist.

I am fortunate to be able to express myself in many media, and enjoy the challenge that each of them demands. I believe that art is the unique result of a unique temperament. Opening my own gallery allows me to bring together and display some examples of that “temperament” within the same space, including painting, pastels, graphics, collage and ceramic sculpture.
