BIOGRAPHY Born in Natick, MA 1968 Education 1998 BA Minnesota State University, Mankato, MN 1997 MS Minnesota State University, Mankato, MN 1990 BA University of Vermont, Burlington, VT ARTIST STATEMENT The smallest things in life are often what connect us as human beings. The calming presence of a sibling or friend, moments of anticipation, tenderness, and personal triumph are realities we often share. These paintings are based on memories, both personal and borrowed. They are an attempt to explore a collective human experience. Details and features remain ambiguous inviting the viewer to seek something of themselves in the work. The figure (human and animal) has provided a generous vehicle for color, form and surface to evolve. Paint and wax are layered, dripped and scraped to create a sense that the subject is still emerging… still ‘becoming’.
