Ackoff stated, "When large numbers of birds fly together, they swirl in a repeating, coordinating, changing pattern. "Murmuration," derived from the wings' sound, occurs when birds flutter together. My work speaks through a network of small brush strokes like a murmuration. Together they form shapes and shadows that gradually unfold as a painting develops. My work whispers - It does not shout. My drawings are completed with care and control. Yet, they are not without passion. The passion is in each object – its shape, subtle color, and tonalities. In the stories, the object tells as brush or silver moves over the ground's surface. Teasing out inherent beauty with focus and patience, I whisper back." #SouthSuburbanCollege
