Artist Statement
I’m fascinated with perception and how people seek meaning and clarity in contemporary life. People’s visions are real to them because at a neurological level perception is a combination of belief, imagination, expectation, memory, and just a bit of visual sensory input. The new series of Bubble paintings continues my obsession with perception.
My own search for meaning, and Performance Art has included Oracle card interpretation for myself and for others. My watercolor paintings continue to evolve from figurative iconography to collage and more conceptual artistic expressions.
