The forthright geometry of architecture and the slow force of nature are the twin elements that inspire my work. Lines and shapes are the compositional building blocks that provide the plan for each painting and the vocabulary I use to affect it. My preference is for a geometry that defines the two-dimensional space around and within a given shape, and with color defining the shape within the depth of the painting.
The encaustic medium is particularly suited to my practice. Wax has surprising optical depth, so the history of my work is visible through discrete layers of wax fused with heat. As an artist, utilizing this layering process, I direct the “geology” of the painting. It’s always a bit of a surprise when the heat hits the wax.
