Using a colorful visual vocabulary of emblems I have generated over time, each of my paintings fluently and joyfully articulates how form can evade our need for categorization. Can definition be captured and confounded at the same time? Painting is a hopeful, optimistic act, and abstraction is an exploratory and generative state of being.
