In nature, light creates the color. In the picture, color creates the light.  ~Hans Hoffman

While the vastness of the visual panorama is certainly astounding, I am interested in the deconstruction and reinterpretation of our surroundings through the use of color and finite detail. I am attracted to small details and lighting events and variations in the natural and artificial environment. The original inspiration may be an anchor for me but the content of a work becomes purely design oriented. I become captivated by the practice of the medium itself. The composition as it was planned may evolve into a previously planned composition and draw from other inspirations. However this idea is not a wishy washy one; for me the practice of art should be continuously disciplined and each plateau will lead to the next riddle or challenge. The visual outcome of a work of art for me can be left up to interpretation. I don't feel that it needs to be representative of anything tangible other than what the viewer wishes to define for him or herself.
