MessageCollection: The Colors Within
My work springs from an internal response to the energies swirling around me. With post-pandemic restrictions loosening up, I seemed to loosen up also. The previous geometric work gradually began to open up and my strokes became looser and less controlled. I found aspects of my earlier work from 2010-2017 becoming visible.
This has resulted in a my most recent body of work that is far more painterly than my previous paintings. I feel increasingly connected to an inner force that seems to select colors and move my hand on the canvas. It's so exciting to sense this internal energy becoming visible as my paintings take shape.
My painting are created with multiple layers and when you look closely, you begin to see the magic of the "colors within".
