My work is about bringing you into my creative and whimsical world
through visual expressions of memory and imagination. I invite you to
develop a dialogue with the movement and atmospheric spaces of my
pieces.
Through my paintings, I connect two of the most meaningful things that
have impacted my current state of being: art and travel. Whether the
reference is abstract, residing in the viewer’s imagination, or
referential to a specific excursion, I incorporate the movement
inherent in travel into the movement in my work.
My thoughts are continually darting between memories of physical travel
and the world of illusion. Besides traveling to new places or returning
to places from my past that hold particular meaning to me, I am
inspired by traveling through my thoughts and exploring intellectual
and imaginary travel.
I am also influenced by the journey that is life, remaining conscious
of other people, their intellectual growth, and the changes that occur
as one travels deeper through life. I believe peoples’ soul, essence,
and personality travel with them growing, expanding and adapting.
Ultimately, I hope to inspire you to travel as well, through the
multiple layers and novel punctuation of my quirky visual style and
personal language, creating your own philosophical, psychological, and
individual dialogue with the piece.
