       Artist Statement

Music is at the core of my artwork. In many of my works, interacting sounds of music are conveyed through the use of color, texture, shapes, line, rhythm and pattern. Through the use of abstract symbols organized in musical composition to represent expressive sound, composers have suggested many aspects of humanity, of our universe and beyond. These are the points of departure for my art works. I believe as Kandinsky stated, that every color has its own sound. Groups of colors repeat and can be "heard" in much the same way that musical phrases in performance can be experienced. My hope is that the viewer can experience my work relating to the "music" within each of them.
