My paintings attempt to create calm in a chaotic world, a twenty-year visual search that especially resonates today. Working abstractly with various materials (acrylic on silk, watercolor on paper, encaustic on paper) I coax paint beyond its comfort zone until the mind is soothed, or that's my intent. It's a messy and satisfying process. I'm opening my industrial studio in the Hollywood Park neighborhood of Sacramento during Verge's Sac Open Studios Sept 11 & 12, and the week prior and after by appointment. Pull into the gated area and park.
