Artist Statement 

 

" Art is the concrete representation of our most subtle feelings, a refashioning of the scheme of things after our own heart’s desire." -William Richard Colvin

My mission is to help myself and others through art and expression. Painting on glass allows me to be honest with the material and the process. The transparency lends a front row seat to my thoughts in the science and art of color theory. Many of my paintings are busy and robust using chance discoveries. The sculptural elements are all made from broken paintings. They allow me to engage with the environment around me. I create them meticulously piece by piece to bring a seriousness in the discipline of sitting and doing the work. Watching how something once completely broken can shine in a room feels godly. Recently I am making neon light sculptures and creating a series of goddesses viewing the neon portals. I am interested in the science of Light and Space and enjoying studying and creating psychedelic intuitiveness by freeing the mind and learning the depths of my own personal taste through fine finishes and sensory experiences. Using glass, resin, Neon and plexiglass I am able to make art that makes me feel like I will be reincarnated into something that can reach and ascend me in the afterlife.
