“All creative works of an artist are autobiographical.  The work represents a key or legend for those to discover over time what the artist wishes to reveal and to what extent the revelation will be.  The medium is vital to the expression.  For me, the medium is color brilliance and density of imagery.  The medium remarks on the elegance of the process and the power of the message which is unique yet arbitrary.”
