Abstract
Inspired by the power and force of the horse, I have developed since childhood my most personal mark; an energetic calligraphic line. I furthered my exploration of that line through the process of lithography and the incorporation of the figure. Using it as a drawing element in the paintings coupled with color choices which cause visual vibration and the use of physical divisions, I've focused on the manipulation of implied movement. Movement and change have been key issues in the progression of my work as well as my life process. Rather that fighting the flow of energy and change, I have slowly begun to surrender to it, replacing fear of the unknown with faith in a guiding power.
