Artist's Statement

Occasionally I hear a person say that he/she does not "understand" abstract art and
therefore does not like it It does not seem to help when told that abstract art does not
necessarily have a meaning.

Though abstract art may not have meaning, it does convey a feeling. Through careful
planning of each painting,I attempt to create an atmosphere or mood. If the viewer
allows himself the time and the freedom from former opinions, perhaps he will actually
feel what I am trying to communicate.

My artwork is about actions and reactions of one shape to another...of one color to
another...it is about balance and rhythm. It can calm or excite, it can be serious or
humorous. I have used colors, shapes and/or brush strokes and their relationships to
each other to create these experiences.

I have been painting seriously since 1975. I love color and paint of all kinds and have
painted everything including, canvas, paper, walls, needlepoint canvases,furniture, fabrics,
ceramics, and floor cloths.

In 1985 I formed a corporation. Creative Abstract Designs, Inc., through which I practice
interior design and sell certain pieces of my art work, mainly custom and commission
work. I enjoy working with people who have specific design needs. This is always a
challenge and therefore interesting and sometimes quite exciting.
