My life's passion has been three things; my family, understanding the Divine and understanding the mortal. All three energize me, stress me and confuse me at the same time. Being evolved in the creative process allows me to disconnect from the constant chatter in my head and puts me in a divine meditative space where there is peace, clarity, and time stand still in the realm of possibilities.
Watercolor painting are much like life “a dance of opposites”. It seems so simple but yet it is very complex. The beauty of watercolor is the transparency and the clarity of the colors. Done masterfully the watercolors sit on the surface just so, but it does not break down the very fragile paper surface. This process allows light to reflect the paper underneath making the colors sing. The colors need to sit one on top of another without disturbing the underneath layer in order to remain fresh and clean. My colors seem bright and pure, but looking a bit closer you see that there is layers of colors. The challenge is how do I get all the layers of colors I love without and keeping the transparency and clean colors. A friend of mine stated about a master watercolorist as having an incredible ability to “push the water around” I say for me it is more that the water with some color is pushing me around. I love the challenge of trying to make it look so simple when it fact there is so much going on as you paint.
