“My paintings in this exhibition are representations, of places I have experienced or thought about. Through the process of creating I allow the work to evolve and change. The environment becomes about the memory as much as the reference material. In these works the perception of form and color are affected so that the paintings, in a sense, are abstract but when contemplated from a further distance they come together as expressive landscapes or environments. Moving through the gallery new interaction happens within my artwork. Rhythm and harmony come together and movement occurs. I like the idea of painting aspects of nature up close as well as traditional landscapes. I deal with the idea of time in painting moving water and skies passing by.” Education2006 MFA, University of Texas at San Antonio, concentration in painting and drawing, with Honors. 2002-2003 Resident Artist in Sculpture, Southern Methodist University, Dallas, TX 2001 BFA Southern Methodist University, Dallas, TX, with Honors 1997-1999 Richland Community College, Dallas TX.
