To me, art is a kind of magic;a transformation of one thing-an inert surface, a lump of clay, etc, into another-an image, infused with color, line, texture. So the vieweris then transformedin a wayand/allsorts of wonderful things can happen inourmindsasweare moved by a particular piece of art.Throughoutmy life I’ve enjoyed exploring many different mediums. Each time, it’s an adventure as well as a learningexperience. My work has a lot of layering of color and texture.I can be very meticulous with my patterning.Also my work tends to be narrative, telling a story or illustrating a concept.I truly believe, as ElbertHubbard said,“Artis not a thing, it is a way”.If we believe in the magical qualities of the life we are living,and celebrate and make the most out of every gift of a day then we are truly living an artistic life.
