Artist Statement

After growing up in a small town in the Northeast, I was drawn to the big cities of New York, San Francisco, and finally Miami.  What I loved about each of these was the diversity, the contrast, and amid all that, the balance that played out to make it all work together.  And, to top it off, they are all coastal cities that embrace another contrast to the hustle and bustle, by providing the tranquility of the ocean.

​

My work is a reflection of these characteristics.  You will see contrast in many aspects:  colors, shapes, sizes, and textures. Yet, you will also see the balance where no one element overpowers another.  My work can enjoy the diversity in its individual components, while enjoying a balance in the entire piece.
