I grew up in Azrou, Grenoble, Nice, Lille, and the San Francisco Bay Area, where I have lived for 39 years. I have moved to rural Hunterdon County, New Jersey, and I'm so in love with their River. These three continents, diverse locations, children's happy sounds playing outside, multiple languages, music, and food have profoundly influenced my artistic sensibilities, providing my art with a rich tapestry of emotional and cultural experiences.
I have worked for more than two decades on color distribution to visualize observable natural facts in physics, chemistry, biology, earth, and environmental science. I don't copy or duplicate nature, but I can partially control certain conditions and the chemical composition behind the artwork, allowing similarities to surface between the artwork and what we see through telescopes, microscopes, and other scientific instruments.
Working in a quiet, clean, isolated environment has always been vital to my artwork. This isolation from distractions and external influences allows me to maintain an uninterrupted dialogue between the art and myself. I avoided exposure to various art movements, open studios, and gallery visits for years because I needed to walk this path alone.
