I usually begin with sketches in ballpoint pen, and often develop these sketches into compositions in oil paint — but I like to remain open and willing to follow the flow of ideas across mediums. each piece emerges from a seed of an idea, and my job as the creator is to nurture these ideas into being, in whichever form they manifest themselves. sometimes a volumetric/3d form is necessitated, sometimes the job is done in 2d space.

My work is neither political nor didactic; rather, it reaches toward something just out of reach — the primal, the mythic, the unsaid. Meaning arises, but is not assigned. people arrive at my work with their own context, and walk away with their own interpretations/conclusions.

i aim instead to transcend the daily discourse; I’m after the bedrock beneath these fleeting fancies — the surreal logic of dreams, gesture, and memory.

what do we remember? did you dream?
