I grew up beside a lake in a rural part of New Jersey, spending my days outdoors as much as the weather would allow. My consciousness became attuned to the rhythms of the seasons and the energy of nature. Richly colored atmospheric environments mingle with lyrical, gestural forms and geometric shapes that are inspired by my life experiences and love of music.

Making art through the lens of abstraction has led me down countless paths of exploration. I experiment with materials, processes, and imagery, each body of work a reflection of a new investigation. The synthesis into artworks of my collective experience is the embodiment of my life as an artist.
