There is brightest light evident in darkest shadow and deepest shadow inherent in the brightest light. Light and shadow have always held a fascination for me. Whether my subject is still life, landscape, or abstraction, expect to see strong contrasts within my composition. I am fascinated by the color of shadows. They are not black, and I do not own any black paint. I always begin by choosing something from my familiar environment and setting up a dramatic lighting situation. My work is an exploration of the effects of light upon color. I enjoy getting my viewers to look at something familiar “in a new light”.
