Lives and works in Austin, TX, USA

Artist statement

My work is tilted as a colorist and a automatism painter. My work also explores materiality, minimalism and the impermanent exploration of Memento vivere in wildflower paintings. The colors collected in my wildflower paintings, appear in my color exploration grided mood works, the two of them in a kind of wordless dialogue. My hand painted grid paintings allow me to categorize the minutia of time. I saw a quote that resonated recently “Painting is silent poetry, and poetry is painting that speaks” Plutarch, shared by Pat Steir
