Born 1961 Montreal Canada.
| Inspiration |
I draw my primary inspiration from two sources that
intertwine over and around each other - the intricate shapes and textures
of nature, and the poetry of the bible. I try to express visually my
personal response to the lyrical, metaphoric verses of King David, which
express the yearning of man to connect with the his Creator, and the
poetic imagery of the later prophets as they spoke G-d's message of
redemption to the people.
When I include verses from the Book of Psalms or from the books of the
prophets, it is not as a caption or a focal point but rather as an
unobtrusive texture emerging from the background, merging with the
delicate colors and graceful shapes of flowers and landscapes.

& Materials |
Most of my work is painted with acrylic on canvas,
while some of the more detailed pictures are executed in a combination of
watercolor and acrylic on paper. The collages are composed of pieces of
watercolor paper which have been prepared by layering with acrylic paints
of varying opacity, stamping with lace and metal lettering, drawing with
pen and ink and colored pencils. Watercolor paintings, wood block prints
and silk screen prints from previous years are torn up and re-worked with
additional layers of paint before finding their place in the collage.
The freedom of composition enabled by the collage has heavily influenced
my work in other media, and I will many times use experimental mixed media
techniques to achieve certain textures and effects, such as that of
ancient scrolls of parchment with writing partially obscured.
