Much of my work has involved the use of animal motifs. Since childhood I have felt a deep affinity for all animals. I continue to strive to express that kinship in my art.

Seeing goes beyond the surface of a subject – there is a light within everything. I have come to understand that the creative spark is that spiritual light jumping across the space that separates me and my subject, igniting within me, and seeking a way to be expressed. I often contemplate what that spark looks like in each thing it touches, and how it looks as it travels.
