According to Nathaniel Branden, author of Honoring The Self,“Every new invention, every true work of art, every genuinely creative act-any commitment taken by anyone anywhere, to his or her own evolution –is an act of self assertion and healing.”
Today, as I ponder the multifaceted issue of Climate Change ,I am aware that, an impetus to create and address our ecological needs to heal our planet and communities has sometimes even un conscientiously manifested in many of my paintings.
My paintings are the outward conveyance of an inner process of thought and consideration of the occurrences of a sometimes-bewildering world. The creative action often initiates from my love of nature and its healing gifts that have always soothed my spirit.
My paintings are motivated by these observations in hopes of offering, certain sanctity or pause –a stilling order from a chaotic world. It is my hope that within these contemplative moments there is offered a spark, and a desire to discover solutions for our troubled lands, polluted air, and toxic waterways .
Solutions! Solutions that help all peoples to cooperate to achieve a harmonious peaceful life with reverence to Natures gifts for all .
My work offers me a vehicle in which to examine the world and the resulting paintings stem from these experiences .
My hope is that we begin to fully recognize the value and beauty of natures gifts , before it is too late ! !
