Artist Statement:
My work is abstract but not entirely so; my imagery invariably refers to aspects of the external world. Associations spring up suggestive of architectural structures, moods of weather or invented objects. Pictorial space becomes a locale. Unexpected correlations between the familiar and the imaginary enrich the more purely formal considerations and open a greater fluidity of meaning.
