My Inspiration
I combine vibrant texture and luminous atmosphere to express a unique contemporary flair in my bird and floral paintings. The lure of the East comes through in a style that balances the beauty and splendor of nature against elements of imperfection and change. The use of pure
saturated oil colors on a collaged surface (stamped rice paper, decorative patterns) or over thin layers of acrylic glaze, balances bold perspective and color with a translucency that evokes tranquility and space. The vertical format of the large-scale paintings provides a division of composition into simple geometric areas, horizontally crisscrossed by long open spaces. Multi-panels resemble Asian folding screens and provide the flexibility to be re-arranged to suit their surroundings.
