You have listened to me talk about painting for years so you know that painting is a relationship.

It is our relationship with each other, your relationship with the city and your memories and your relationships with the people who are sharing your life with you.

Your feelings and sense of place are evoked because the paintings are also the unique relationship that I have with the paint and the image is our common language.  Every day that I am in the studio, this relationship deepens and it makes each painting an individual that carries tremendous energy and movement. It is for this reason that this year again you will find no prints and why the paintings continue to carry their value.

What is more pleasantly startling than to walk into a space and to be surrounded by strong artwork that participates with you, penetrating your thoughts and changing the way you feel.

The city evolves like we do, places are defined and redefined.  Spaces are rethought and re-understood and our human experience shifts when we question our memories that are anchored to those spaces and can now find no grasp even as we experience the pleasure of new anchors unfolding.
