“The words I use to describe my work are the same I use to describe myself: deliberate, strong and literal.  I am fascinated by texture and color, but my work is also dominated, sometimes much to my despair, by line.  I try to incorporate that compulsion for the literal (line) with my desire to express just the opposite:  that which cannot be defined, but must be felt.  My abstract works come from a place without plan and take their own form until the end, when I apply the finishing details.”
