Artist Statement:


As an artist, having worked in real estate, spatial structure is a natural visual for me, and I cannot help but use my eye continuously there. The interiors of houses, the walls, floors and lighting have become elements of the geometry I enjoy creating and I often find aspects of these waiting for me when I set a brush to paper, wood or plaster.


Because of my earlier experience as a choreographer, the elements of movement are often present in my journey from 3-D to 2-D. Altering the colors of a design, breaking patterns of symmetry and geometric form has become a challenge for me, and bringing them into harmony as composition or statement is what I aim for in my work.

About dwelltime:


dwelltime is a coffee bar & bake shop owned and operated by barismo.


We’re located in the historic F.B. Hubley Auction Gallery building at 364 Broadway. Originally a small grocer, Hubley opened as an auction gallery in the 1940’s and operated until 2008. We signed a lease and began working on the space in June 2011. Working with our developer, we were able to save the tin ceiling and maple floors, and restore the facade to its original historic condition.


About dwelltime art friday series:


dwelltime is committed to featuring local artists working in a variety of media and reclaiming the historical gallery space as a vibrant part of the community where coffee and art welcome everyone.
