My work is about light and space. Sometimes my work is symbolic. The basis is a geometric, linear division of space, like the facets of a gem. The interactions and proportions of colors within those divisions will re-create the components of a beam of light. The painting will glow in a closet.

The space is tactile, touchable, plastic. I seek an art that recedes from the viewer, pulls them in, rather than the usual assertive space.

A main principle is unity of space, light, form and expression. My influences were Botticelli, Vermeer, Seurat, Matisse, and Rothko. I want to redo Rothko from nature.
