‘Terminus Movement’ is a method of monitoring a glacier’s movement. This term applied to my paintings reflects the glacial movement of progress and change in my work.  My paintings are about slow, steady, and seemingly stationary yet moving ideas.  They are about persistence.

I am an 'abstract naturalist’ exploring the layers of life with acrylic washes and ink on canvas. My art is about color and shapes and a positive attitude toward of life. I simplify images and find joy in the mundane and the everyday. “Art seems to me to be a state of soul more than anything else.” (Marc Chagall) I have always loved Georgia O'Keefe as an artist and her character as a woman in a man's world of art. I love her use of color and shape. Much of her influence still appears in my work. I concentrate on lines, layers, color, and composition primarily.  Lines represent my ‘self’ trying to order the events in my life and the layers represent the complexities and ‘color’ the experience.
