Statement
My paintings continue to be derivatives from the human form. I think
of my work as being a great spiritual manifestation, a place of
heightened awareness of the supernatural. The imagery can be thought
of as groups of spirits performing acts of love and violence in
a dimension where the interactions resolve without pain. The lines
shape fragments of people and the colors decide the tone of excitement;
they survive in clusters, strewn into physical, emotional, or spiritual
states. There are wholes, remnants, and representations of the different
ways humans exist and are perceived to exist.
