Artist Statement
use color to create form rather than just a filler for the objects represented. Color transforms visually into shape and form and becomes the lines. With a stroke, I transform bold colors to appear three dimensional. Color has a form and occupies a space of its own in my work. Color can be shown as gaseous and nebular forms or as solid as a circular form. When color is given dimension, it becomes more than something that occupies a shape, it is the shape.
