Artist Statement: My goal as an artist is
to explore the range of my medium, which is light.
I have developed several bodies of work exploring
a variety of structures, but the poetry of light on
form keeps coming back. One body of work, consisting
of highly chromatic figurative renderings, called
"Chromo Sapient," is intended to push the
envelope of color, while maintaining the chiaroscuro
- the illusion of light on form. More so lately, I
have introduced the element of conceptualism into
my work. Representationalism may be my dharma but
I feel I have recently begun to explore the possibilities
of narrative and poetry using color and light to transport
the viewer of my work into another realm of reality.
