| Artist's Statement |
The current body of work focuses, primarily, on figures in gathering places. The abstracted architectural spaces often evoke European
and Mexican influence, yet, could exist anywhere. The anonymous,
often faceless, figures are the people we often watch when we take
the time to quietly observe. They sometimes sit alone; other times
interact with one another; and, in some cases, they watch one
another. By simplifying major figurative elements into shapes of light
and color I tried to capture the atmosphere, the feeling of intrigue
and mystery; and to suggest the narrative that might be behind
figures that linger in shadows, individuals caught in quiet reverie;
or people occupied in private, maybe even secret lives.
