Music is the symphony of sounds and poetic words which leads my improvisational /reactive gestures. My training as a dancer and choreographer connect the music intuitively and my imagination conjures up shapes and forms that ultimately explore a world all my own inspired by fusion of the arts. As a choreographer, it is in my nature to visualize scenes; as the saying goes "All the world’s a stage," I put my signature style to that phrase twisting it up a bit with an awareness of physicality and explore the possibilities of movement within the painting. The act of pouring, splattering, oscillating, carving, layering, complimentary or contrasting textures and colors is a ritual for me.
My art is my communication of all things that I imagine and can reflect in my creations without words.... my Heaven.
