The paintings are an exploration of the gap between abstraction and representation, made in the
studio, inspired by memories of the energy in nature. Abstracted by the pallet knife, hidden worlds and images reveal on the picture plane, uncovered, stroked, massaged, and moved onto the surface, brought up from hiding; surprising me with their ability to come forth when called by my hand. The recognized of our ‘world sight’ becomes unrecognizable, opening the eye of the witness to the fusion of brutal force and the tender delicacy of nature. Beginning from darkness, moving to find hidden worlds that lay just beyond the edge of our awareness, observing the unexplored knowledge of the unseen. When the scales of our eyes are lifted we are brought to the underlying entity.
