Life, and the very act of living defies definition with it’s chaotic and wondrous way of ecpressing itself in every thing around us. My art is a response to the ineffable nature of living in this beautiful tactile soup that makes the world what it is. The experience is all around us in nature, music, dreams… the unfolding histories of who we are. These feelings become clay, pigments, chalk, rock and sand. Each element has a voice and becomes a part of a whole, an emerging idea that is forever evolving. My work is an attempt to honor the visceral beauty and mystery that is in the nature of living.
