“Less is more”  ~ Ancient Greek proverb

“There is great beauty in simplicity” ~ Mirra Alfassa

Living in the world today can be complicated and overwhelming. We are inundated with a myriad of stresses, diversions, stimuli and expectations to our physical and mental well being. I’ve learned that simplifying things can provide a sense of freedom and balance. I believe that more isn’t always better. Sometimes it’s just more.

Particularly for my work I have tried to keep things simple, both in my approach and vision—to eliminate superfluous, distracting elements and capture the essence of my experience. In doing so I have found I can concentrate more on what’s important to me and have a finer focus and direction, both in creating my art and in living my life.

“Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication” ~ Leonardo da Vinci

“Simplicity is the glory of expression” ~ Walt Whitman

“Art is the elimination of the unnecessary” Pablo Picasso

“Simplicity is about subtracting the obvious and adding the meaningful” John Maeda
