Artist Statement
The inspiration for my current work stems from a collection of handwritten letters and notes from family. I am intrigued by the movement and rhythm of the loops, crosses, and angles! find within each written line. The uniqueness of each line segment enriches my desire for a connection to the past. Through this process, a portrait of the individual is revealed. I create a link with the past by using the lines and marks that I discover. By incorporating these handwritten marks into my paintings, I feel it brings to life the spirit of family memories.
