Artist Statement
Art critic Anne M. Wagner, in a review of paintings by Mary Heilman, asked the question “What world can a painting summon?” It is my intention to create work that compels a viewer to ask questions such as this with the added realization that the response will change depending on the viewer’s state of mind. I want the viewer’s ever-changing context to bring meaning to the work.
I revel in applying paint to explore how various pigments interact with one another. Nature’s process is always evident in her products and this inspires me. Oil paint is the best medium that enables me to interpret our surroundings. I apply paint in several layers–scrubbing away in places, building up in others. This process celebrates the journey as much as the final product.
