I use paint to make pictures of an alternate world, a world of consciousness embodied by form, space and light. These self-contained tableaus are highly structured, sparse and tonal. They are secret worlds of reverie, pathos and numen. My voice is archaic, ascetic. It does not recognize the gloss and distraction of modern life. It looks to find itself in the being-ness of things, the profundity of space and the tenderness of light.
