I often rework pieces continuously over long periods of time; however, some pieces express themselves immediately forcing me to stop. I live with them and work them until they "feel" right. You would often find 5 to 15 reiterations of an image or different images buried in the canvas or peering through the final expression. Instinctive detail, sensuous strokes, distressed space and dynamic chaos are exposed throughout the canvas. I am a COLOR addict & bend heavily towards Fauvist temperament. The Fauves purest passion and joy of creating inspires me to push my work beyond itself again and again (even on art bags, wall clox, bucket hats ;) I am driven to create figurative abstract, primitive in nature. I see the human figure everywhere in nature; the sky, the earth, fire, water, ball caps ... Human figures inspire me more than any other subject or genre. Female figures, particularly torsos or silhouettes provoke subtle, exquisite emotion.  The stretch of a neck. The curve of a spine. The handle on a frosty mug.  Vulnerability and strength in position or gesture. In my eyes, a work of art should have a meaning which transcends the dimension and materials.  It should have an impact on the soul and the environment ~ LAH
