BIO
I have been an Artist, Art Instructor for almost 30 years. Along the way I have been an Illustrator, arts administrator, and gallery director. My work is included in various public collections including the Boston Public Library, The Addison Gallery of American Art, The Brooklyn Museum, and Rutgers University.
My work has been described as Organic abstraction, but is not really abstract so much as being a figurative response to a subconscious interpretation of accident. By creating accidents on a surface and then reacting to my subconscious interpretations of those accidents I have hoped to find new ground as an offshoot of the junction between Surrealism and Abstract Expressionism and hopefully, to impose my own sensibility. What do they mean? Well, they are open to interpretation but for me most have a dark connotation that I think shows through when I get at what I want.
