My work is a reflection of my life, the rich texture of my family, history and experiences are blended together just as composition colours melt into swirls of water and bursts of fire. With sweeping gestures of my blowtorch, I am not only burning in the medium, adhering layer to layer. I am also burning in memory, time and space. I hope the luminosity and movement of my work offers the viewer the same spontaneity and transformation I experience as I paint.
