At its core my work delves into the complexities of emotion in a lyrical and abstract way. It conveys and provokes a visual symphony of limitless feeling. As one looks at each piece there is a vast array of sentiment that ranges from a haunting aftermath of a severe risk taken, to a glimmer of grace that one is able to grasp for just a moment, because the hope seems so fleeting. This adds to the overall atmospheric experience of both subtle and highly intense layers of paint so intuitively applied with a keen sophistication of composition that one can visually dive deep into the canvas, but then find their way back through the vastness of layered strokes of paint.
Whether stoic, dark and sculptural, or lyrical, stark and gestural, I portray emotions through paint in such a way that viewing the work would pierce even the coldest of hearts. I would like my work to transcend the confines of personal experience and the apathetic times in which we find ourselves and instead march toward a universal shared awareness of empathy, love and understanding.
