Artist Statement

The imaginary in my work is inspired by my observations of nature, Native American culture prior to the 1800’s and the experiences I have had in the world about me. I fell in love with Surrealism because it is limitless in dimension. It allows me the freedom to create what is in my heart. I am creating a visual communication with the world that words alone cannot express. I enjoy the use of empty spaces, so the imagination is not confined.
