ARTIST’S  STATEMENT

 As a landscape architect and artist, I was inspired by the agrarian landscape of my childhood. My work has evolved to produce a body of design work that is an amalgam of art and landscape, which reflects a life-long love of minimalism,  and a fascination with texture and materials.

 Art has become a hands-on testing ground for my interest in the sculptural expression of the properties of materials such as honed stone, crushed limestone and rusted metal. Experiments in textures and subtle variations in hue are furrowed back into my practice as exhibited in some of my contemporary projects. I draw inspiration from the pure abstraction of the visual world into repetition of objects, order of grids, and textures. The layering and composition of these elements is expressed in my prints, paintings, assemblages, sculpture, and landscapes.
