The Artwork of

I paint in the abstract using universal symbols and am now executing a series on geometric and thematic abstraction.

Wassily Kandinsky has had a great influence on my work as well as Plato's theory on beauty and the use of the geometric form using point, line and plane.

My works are counterpointed by music which adds a dimension where all details count and conform simultaneously. Many choices are made in the expressive and spiritual process of a work using creative imagination and intense delight.
