My work is a reflection on the dynamic nature of color, and the compelling mystery it holds.
The visceral response I have to color leads me to construct lyrical vignettes of intersecting planes creating a moment to invite wonder and feel color relationships in a reimagined way.
There is a rhythm that happens when I begin to assemble my paintings. I individually paint a multitude of wooden shims with molten wax pigment (encaustic). As I play and build, stacking and layering the painted shims, I sense an undercurrent moving, a logic that is organizing my thoughts into a syncopated composition of color and form.
I developed my art practice after years working in the field of interior architecture and design. I am a San Francisco based artist.
