Relationships of color as a metaphor for relationships in life inspire my creativity. Some colors seem obviously compatible, while others seem as though they couldn’t possibly coexist. My goal is to create compositions in which elements not only peacefully coexist, but also enhance each other, spurring viewers’ imaginations.
Long ago, I decided that as an artist, I wanted to elicit joy to make the world a better place. I admire those who create profound, controversial works, but that is not my calling. People encounter negativity in so many ways every day of their lives, whether on the daily news, in the congestion of traffic or in politics. Colors flowing into each other represent the interactions of humanity, including all races, ethnicities, cultures, genders, etc.
I have been fortunate to have witnessed positive physical changes in people viewing my pieces---shoulders relaxing, brows unfurrowing, and more. My work has been used as an aid in the easing of mental illness and has been a catalyst for romance!
To enhance the experience as well as viewers’ imaginations, most creations are designed to be rotated multiple ways.
