Artist Statement

I am always doing that which I cannot do, in order that I may learn how to do it! Pablo Picasso, 1883-1973.  Art is to life, as the pieces I create speak to the contradictions that filled my world for some time.  Being a self taught artist and choosing “Decoupage” as my form of expression, I did not have rules and/or techniques on how to create art for a guide, I jumped in and followed my instincts and formed my own ideas and rules which is the very meaning of “creativity” and while doing so I began to realize more and more that it was the colors themselves that represented a deeper meaning for me.
