Through painting and sculpture I create meditative portals to transport the viewer from ordinary to non-ordinary realities, opening doorways into the collective unconscious. While I never fully reveal a subject in my work, it can be inspired by a photograph or a dream, or I will just start painting and let the canvas communicate the journey. Sculpture can begin with a small model – a nod to my dec

My work has been featured in museums and galleries since the 1990s, and I was awarded First Prize at the Delaplaine National Juried Art Exhibition in 2020.

New work. First, I create a minimalist abstract painting, then I "erase" it by covering it with translucent glazes. I never know in advance what the final painting will look like. These are difficult to see on a computer screen, or a phone...
