The act of creating a painting is a prayer of surrender for me. Derived from dreams and scrying natural objects, a plethora of archetypes and symbols become my healing resources. I often paint repetitive layers that reflect the movement of a sinuous dance. Anthropomorphic characters materialize that feel archaic and ancient. Rooted in the subconscious, these mysterious and humorous images flow spontaneously onto the canvas in bizarre allegories, all guiding me toward a much larger surrender.
