Biography: I find the act of creating analogous to a journey. A cross-country journey on foot. It can be a casual stroll, a sprint or a steady run. It’s about the paths taken and the paths not taken. It’s the joy of the journey. It’s the constantly changing scenery and the exciting expectation of seeing beyond the horizon. The artwork produced is a translation of that inner landscape to outer reality. It is not the revelation of a vision but the vision of a revelation. It’s the panorama of what I’ve seen and the map of where I’ve been. I am a digital artist. From the contemporary representational to the completely abstract, it begins with the computer and ends with a gicleé print. The computer is both the canvas and the brush. But my passion is not for the technology, it’s for the creative power and the freedom to explore as the journey progresses. It’s a passion for the infinite interplay between light, color and form. It fills me with a sense of integrity, a sense of accomplishment, a sense of wonder. For me, and I suspect a great many other artists, it takes a good deal of courage to present something so personal. I do so only with the hope that a few of you will enjoy taking the journey and will nurture your own sense of wonder. All works are Gicleé prints limited to an edition of fifty.
