About the Work
Study of nature has brought an inherent organic quality to my work. My aesthetic focuses on capturing sensations of light and color along with the emotions these can inspire. My style gains strength from my exploration and direct handling of various mediums - paint that I have an intimacy with because I make it myself. Painting is this process of discovery without fear or repression with the potential of bringing forth new forms of expression.

About the Work
I find that the immediate and direct process of drawing serves as a means by which I can meditate on the fundamental nature of things. I see image-making as a way of creating not just a physical relationship to concepts, but a sensual and emotional one as well. I want my work to be felt, not just experienced. I want the concepts that I am exploring to resonate with the viewer on a basic visceral level.

About the Work
Digesting the experience of being alive is my ever-present artistic motivation. I impart instinct and psychological states into physical form, paying close attention to my own body as I work. By aligning with my media I internalize its characteristics, which I amplify to create objects that feel 'one' with their source. Yet, the trace of my making inevitably leaves an imprint of my humanity, and thus an inherent connection to those who experience the work.
