Artist Statement

My paintings incorporate invention and observation, mind and matter. They lie at the intersection between the environment and our experience of it. I approach this theme from diverse angles made manifest in several distinct bodies of work. Some works focus on marine life or the complex lives of trees. Some focus on the roles animals play in human lives—as symbols of culture, agents of nature, casualties of human development, raw material for designer goods, food, or trophies. The Passages series translates these ideas into geometry, referencing varied natural phenomena, ecology, and natural and designed systems. The external world is filtered through a personal lens. Representative works reveal strong connections between creativity and the mechanisms of nature, consciousness, and mental state and environment.
