Painting is a silent language that awakens the sleeping soul. It opens the doorway to unseen mysteries and manifests them into the seen. Art can be revealing and healing. Line, color, shape and content have a sublime effect upon the artist and viewer. These elements enter through the eyes and fall softly on the heart. My work is an expression of the heart a story without words revealing and explaining the unrevealed and the unexplained.
