I am fascinated by our complex love yet exploitation of nature. For me, painting is an affirmation of my concern and sense of awe for my subject, the natural world and its creatures. |
I feel that art can have a message, can provoke and still be beautiful. I use texture and iridescent pigments, which remind me of the sparkle of broken glass and the rainbow in oil and gas spills. |
I found the mouse on the road near my house. Someone was putting out rat poison, and it claimed the mice as well. In fact, it almost killed my dog. |
