SOME EARLIER PAINTINGS
"As with most artists today,
I am very aware of the formal plastic elements in art. I have
developed many aesthetic consistencies in my work even when at
times it may seem diverse. But my art is always tied to expression.
A common artistic thread in my work shows my interest in color,
curved space, balance, rhythm, and movement. Ultimately, a painting
or sculpture is only finished when all if its elements and relationships
work to such an extent that it lives to the viewer.
"My
work here has not so much to do with evolution, but with expansion
and development of who I am as a person and an artist. That's
why my last exhibition in New York was called "Driving Force"
-- The force of who I am and what I want to be."
