I was born in Charleston, WV and now make a permanent home in the Boulder area of Colorado. My painting comes out of my meditation practice. When my mind is relaxed from the usual chaos and discursiveness and chattiness our most basic nature which is (in a nutshell) pure creativity can express itself. My best work happens when I drop all the plans and projects and let the painting happen.

| 关于此艺术家 |
I’m particularly interested in and influenced by the old east Asian aesthetics that include asymmetry, grace, harmony and wabi-sabi where beauty is when a thing most honestly expresses itself in all its messy, imperfect, genuine glory. I work primarily in acrylics on canvas with silks, and metal leafs. I like to explore the things that connect us as human beings – our desires to be met and known and understood. |

El Tesoro
2006 60cm x60cm |
|
This work is inpired from recent trips to Mexico - the color, the eroded, aged quality of structures and aspects of living there. |
Luminosity I
2005 60cm x 81cm |
|
This is the first painting where I figured out how to layer paint over gold metal leaf where the whole canvas glows. |
VIsit from the Turquoise Lady
2006 81cm x 101cm |
|
This is a painting that was worked over and over and lost its vibrancy, its life. Then Turquoise came to visit and something entirely fresh happened. |
Mañana del Otoño
2006 81cm x 101cm |
|
Autumn morning. This is really what autumn mornings can feel like in the mountains - luminous and fleeting. |
The Silk Road
2005 30cm x 30cm |
|
I've long been inspired by the old trade routes, how the silk road meandered through desert, mountain and plain with all manner of treasures and stories. |
The Meeting of Earth and Sky
2004 50cm x 152cm |
|
I got to have a slice of magic channeled through me the morning this piece came through. I was that point for a moment where the earth and sky meet. |
The Dawn Bell
2005 50cm x 50cm |
|
It was the moment that dawn announces itself, pulling itself from the mossy depth of night. |
River Dragons III
2006 60cm x 60cm |
|
Study of river currents and the rich, deep alluvial treasures of those currents. |
