My acrylic paintings are based on experiences that have helped to shape my moral conduct, sense of values, and my sense of responsibility. During the early stages of my paintings, it is as though I am at the bottom of a ladder. I begin by covering the canvas with a surface composed of gestured brush strokes, sometimes even applying different mediums. This becomes the base coat of the overall hues that I wish to show through the finished painting.
In addition, I work to develop the themes of my paintings through bold line, rich color and abstract subject matter. I balance the methodologies, or signs in art, and the emotions, or impressions in art in order to convey my ideas to the viewer. While creating the composition of the painting, I work from both photographs and/or nature that symbolize the question I wish to pose.
