Art, like music, offers a language beyond the concepts of words. For art to be innovative, it must be preserved from the corruption of stale and redundant perception, created from an inner wilderness.

If art comes from the primordial seeds of existence, from an inner necessity to create, rather than from a preconceived idea of beauty or style, then art reflects in symbolic imagery our primal nature, our oneness with all things.

Through the unique instrument of my being, I let intuitive experiment and exploration ignite choices of color and form, an invention comparable to the composing of the tones and notes of a musical improvisation. For me, art is a spontaneous ride on the crest of the Tao's wave, a nomadic and intuitive exploration born from passion, spawned by the mystery. In my creative process, initially I am like a maiden falling in love, though later the analyst may be called in. My passion seeks to embody the empty word or canvas.

Ultimately art is an innocent, interactive mirror of the innermost process, whisking me out of time, into the Timeless. To live and create my art from the Unconditioned well of being and inspire this in others is my life's work.

"My work is a confession; I must bear witness" - Albert Camus
