Art “Abstract allows me to convey the essence of intimacy entering into and collaborating with the shapes and color of the work. I’m not forced to study from afar, trying to self-define the image. Even with my figurative works, I feel somehow poised on the edge. It’s the reception that energizes me-the spontaneity of the shapes and colors that seem to welcome to explore. It’s so far removed from my technical works. I like to get as close as I can to the shapes. The shapes and colors seem to shoulder me on a resplendent journey.” Posted by Art Workshop
