Through interlacing layers and creating
multiple skeins of transparent and saturated hues, I find the intimate,
the bold and the naughty in paint. By exploring sensuality and textures
through brushwork, washes and breath that suggest tapestries and textiles
I revisit other times by uncovering history until the moment becomes present.
I constantly eliminate the superfluous, yet keep the history of the painting
alive by retaining pieces and parts of what went before. The layers become
a base of information and a process of discovery as they record the emotional
and bodily relationship I have with my experience of painting. The passages
through time surface and the experience of the journey is revealed through
the painting itself.
