ARTIST STATEMENT
“While my formal objectives, influences, and stylistic choices reveal themselves on the surface, the motivational aspect are reflections of life that address the mysteries, ironies, and humors of what compels me to take the first steps through morning’s door, the last thoughts before sleep, and the first marks on the page.

Daily interactions that float between the observed, the reflected, and the memory, and vacillates through seconds, minutes or hours building to comprehension. I will experience laughter numerous times today, but I expect it will come in from many forms and prompts. So, if I were to paint laughter, the image could be a person, a comics-strip, a verse, a pattern, or a shape. The story builds in the process of creation and is best when told with a few surprises.”
