In my work, I strive to express the relationship between humanity, nature, earth and the universe. More personally, creating artwork for me is meditation and is a reflection of myself, in a moment in time. Viewers often find universality in my paintings, which depict shapes and symbols found in nature. The use of round and circular forms represent the cycle of life and their common occurrence in the universe.

The majority of my work is oil on linen or canvas. By mixing the paint with oil and mineral spirits, I create a multitude of layers, representing metaphorical links to the past, present and future.

My work on paper is painted with Japanese pigment and traditional Japanese writing ink, called Sumi ink, as well as collage using my old paintings, photos, and painted and dyed papers. By dropping and blowing the ink very carefully, I create the expressive beauty of life full of accidents and chances.

My printmaking work is all hand printed by myself.  They are one to multiple copperplate prints and I mix traditional techniques of etching, aquatint, sugar lift, open bite, and chine-collé, to create contemporary design.

The varied colors, fine lines and organic shapes in my art reflect my sensibilities and emotions. These feelings are often uncertain and intimidated by the challenges the future may bring, but ultimately inspired and hopeful.
