The endurance of painting historically and personally represents
a transcendence of death, a record of the present in the uncertainty
of life.
My work is an exploration of personal symbolism. I delve into
iconography that is known and unknown, referencing a collective-unconscious
image bank. My paintings incorporate figurative and environmental
imagery. I am interested in the relationships of subject to
ground, shape and color and how these elements effect one another.
At times the figures in my work are removed and isolated from
their worlds, or perhaps they coalesce into their surroundings.
Union and disintegration are simple facts of nature.
The environment is in a continual state of flux; we are merely
fleeting participants in the unfathomable cycle of life and
death. We are everything that we experience. My art is a reflection
of my life; uncovering layers between the mundane and the ecstatic.
