Artist Statement:

Remember sitting down at a piano as a child, and plinking out the notes to “Heart and Soul” with a friend? One plays the lower tune over and over, and the other plays the melody, then you both start to improvise a little, changing the rhythm and music until it becomes something else entirely.

The work I share starts with that same idea, one friend providing a photo from a vacation, or a bit of original art, and allowing me to play a melody on top. After awhile, the melody changes and the original work becomes something new that I might not have expected. I love that surprise, when the rhythm changes and the work sings out in a new voice.

I share little bits of my heart and my soul in this work, just a peek. Enjoy!
