My paintings emphasize and balance opposites -- light and shadow, large surfaces and small details, abstract and representational elements, sculptural and organic forms. I observe the literal and figurative space around me to capture and create images of stillness.

"We have to learn how to interrupt our lives with silences, rest-notes, rather than simply with more distractions."
