Artist's Statement

There has been an evolution of consciousness in modern art starting with Cezanne, and continuing most directly in its development by Picasso, De Kooning , and Bacon. They accomplished this by the use of planes of color, abstraction, and with figures whose anatomy is flattened, sculptural and cubic. I strive to further their developments. The figures I create have the quality of both movement and stillness at the same time. A dramatic landscape is created by the use of bright colors and existential settings. The themes of my artwork are commentaries on the social, political and moral dilemmas of modern man.
