ARTIST STATEMENT
I paint on the ground. Paper mounted onto the wood. Layer- mark-scrape-paint. Layer-mark-scar. Building its history, like mine. The process unfolds and becomes the work, alert in the moment. Breath-pause. Capturing mistakes and discovery. The marks that came before creates what’s now. On and on. No real beginning or end, yet they are all part of each other and create the whole. Showing down to hear within, I have found my voice. Guidance and divine forces move me to inner clarity. I listen. My paintings speak of an understanding from a deep, mossy place within me—life, forgiveness, connectedness, purpose.
