"Color Obsessed"
For me, the process of art making is a kind of story telling, enabling the expression of energy, perception, and emotions with light, texture, and form. An experimentalist at heart, I love brushing, crushing, pressing, scraping and moving color across surfaces. I work in a variety of mediums, including encaustic, gouache, oil pastels, watercolors, colored pencils, and charcoal. I take photos for reference, for journaling, and also for personal enjoyment.
