My current work is an ongoing conversation around the unknown, decidedly spirited, with titles often suggesting the complex world we live in. I tip into the free-fall of abstraction in painting, producing compositions that nudge at our own physical world with brushstrokes that are generous and playful. As an image maker, my practice holds an awareness of the dizziness of this time we are in, how we got here, and the effect this state delivers to the human subconscious. I was willingly raised on a steady diet of American television and MTV before heading to art college, so as an accumulative result, my influences are often random threads between pop consumerism, film, and the pages of art history.
