Artist Statement

“My work is about an off-kilter, intuitively unfolding narrative of color/shape/line/gesture, in which divergent perspectives attempt to co-exist in the same time and space—the ever present tension of reality being one thing, and another, and the attempt to hold both in one moment.”
