From running my hands through my cousin's cookie tin full of hundreds of buttons of assorted sizes, textures to growing up in my grandparents' clothing store where I couldn't wait to touch everything – I have always been tactile. In painting, I love the way charcoal, pastels and crayons have their own distinct feel and speed as they hit the canvas – and the different textures they produce. My compositions consist of fluid organic and linear shapes, abstract masses and spontaneous gestures. Materials include acrylic, graphite, charcoal, and oil sticks. My work is inspired by every day surroundings. I live by the water, so there are always interesting things happening – patterns on the sand in a low tide, a colorful crab buoy and beautiful sunrises and sunsets.
