My work is based on landscape. Rather than painting from a viewpoint of the deep, perspetival space of traditional landscapes, I use formal relationships between color and mark to explore a flatter, more abstract and conceptual space.
Materials and process build my paintings. The paintings are not planned but evolve through sequential addition of colors and layers, each mark and color responding to the previous one. I allow the agency of the paint and its movement across the canvas surface to make the painting. I purposefully relinquish control over much of my process - allowing the possibility of unexpected relationships and juxtapositions of shape and color. These surprises inform both me and the painting.
