In my work I explore the connection between human experience and the places which we inhabit. Connecting us through time, the layering process of the work creates a depth - akin to time and history. The juxtaposition of antique map images and expressionist paint handling create a sense of "inexplicable poetry" .....influenced by the Symbolist poets and the Luminist painters.... fragmentary forms & veiled meanings which speak to us on an emotional level..... where light and color touch our common humanity.
