Artist statement

My creative process is an addiction. It carries me through modes of expression imagined in my minds eye and emotions that I experience. The images of thought and feelings become a physical reality. Through study, I have experimented in several different media and genre. With perseverance and determination I have found a distinct idea in what I do as art and what I call my art.

A work of art is the result of an action; it is the aftermath of consequences and impacts. Control is what I seek from the ruling impulses of pleasure, satisfaction, suffering, joy, enlightenment, and despair. My works become a created order of emotional contrasts; conscious, unconscious, implicit or explicit. I feel my art succeeds if it engenders all of these emotions for an aesthetic experience for me as well as the viewer. I know style is the expressive tendencies of an artist. Line, shape, color and value are modes expression that is promanite in my works.

Line in my works and on going series of works has become the foremost prominent visual element. I have come to realize that line clusters, sometimes smooth and thick, single and or grouped plays for introductions of shape. Shape or space becomes irregular, geometric and at times overlapping. Shape gives rhythms of repetitive harmony with inviting contours in my work. Depending on how these two elements are coupled lends the way for the incorporation of color.

Colors in my works are usually natural in context. I do find myself being intrigued at one time or another with particular colors; color that, in itself becomes a dominant factor in a series. The specification of these dominant elements becomes representative in two dimensions. One is the interlacing of line, shape and color to forward my development in maturity as an artist. This in turn allows for the value of a work, which is second. The value of a work I feel is determined by two perspectives, one of the artist, and to the viewer. I gain a personal satisfaction upon the completion of a piece, when I feel that when I can physically see the vitality, reason and integrity somewhat objectively. To the viewer, it varies with the conditions of life and culture. I find that through this I have developed tendencies to receptiveness on how works might be experienced by the viewer for an interpretation. By absorbing those various inexhaustibility’s, gives me an intensity of contrast and endurances for adapting to new developments in my art.

My work becomes a collaboration of movements, I feel for a social description of my work as a whole it is best to be described as what I call “cubistic abstractionism”. The definition is simply the relation of my reality abstracted by the images of expression and emotions using the basic elements of visual and formal qualities. My art manifests visual, thought altering and emotional interpretations from any standpoint. I feel that for a work to with stand the pressures of such an existence it must enlist certain elements of survival such as would an individual.

Bio

Coming from the background of criticism and control, my works whether on paper, canvas or constructed, are in extreme rebellion of the society I live in. The criticism comes from the closed minded view of living in a small town with blind ideas of what creation of art is and what they deem as “art”. The control comes from being female in a society where women do the “right thing” even to the brink of insanity to the point of self destruction.

At a very early age I began to color. I found it fascinating in the way the crayon put color onto the paper. Through the years I experimented with every media and genre available to me. For awhile this kept me happy as an artist. For ten years I did not create, my life path as I thought “took a different route”. Though in one of my lowest times I picked up a pencil and began to draw a self-portrait. How disgusting it was, “how unbearable,” I thought,” you look like that?” I continued to draw becoming more enthused with the idea of creating my inner most thoughts and emotional tendencies. My works began to take on a life of their own.

My works express a sexual frustration and alienation from what is good in a perverted society, my works create in the viewer an inner most desire of which can be related to. Our lives are shaped and focused on sexuality. My life as an artist is always changing but the one thing that is constant is my ability to create whether it is on extreme self-control of the media I choose or the free will to break all the “rules” on the illusions of a certain media.
