Artist Statement

 

The process of making art is mysterious. Whether painting on paper or canvas or mixing media or using the touch screen of an iPad, carving stone or working in clay, my art is always work of inspiration and improvisation. The first thing I have to do is get out of my own way. I sit quietly,  pick up my materials, take a breath, let go and see where the moment takes me. I am always surprised and often amazed.

A blinding spark flashed
within the concealed of the concealed
From the mystery of the infinite
a cluster of vapor in formlessness….
Under the impact of breaking through,
one high and hidden point shone.
Beyond the point nothing is known.
So it is called “Beginning.”
​
Zohar
