Artist Statement
My finished work is the effect of exploring various creative processes to reach a final arrangement. I rely on our desires for beauty and intrigue, which allows me to delve into the relationship among of the real and the abstract, re-enforcing a conversation between color and texture. My relationship with yoga and my children has been influential to my love for playful and active involvement in creation. My art has taken on an unrefined quality, stressing the connection between final image and the physical act of formation.
Mr. Strenk! I had you at camp and careers two years ago and the year before. I haven’t been able to find your eMail address in the sketch book I wrote it in. I’ve been talking to Mr. Pring from camp three years ago, every once in a while and I was wondering how everything was with you. Hope all is well! You were (and still are) the best art teacher I have ever had
