My work comes out of my passion for discovering new visual experiences. I love to be mystified and put in a state of wonder.  

Like an ancient alchemist I experiment with materials and processes, not certain what the outcome will be. I blend traditional techniques and materials with experimental techniques and materials to produce images that I feel inspire awe. This process allows me to investigate, explore, learn and of course be awestruck. I do not set out to produce art about a particular subject.

 
Whenever I come across a new technique or have a new idea, I pursue it until I feel the need to stop.  Also, working this way allows for new iconographies and symbolism to develop in the work.  I enjoy painting, especially when I catch those "awe moments." My hope is that I can pass some of this on to the viewer.

Thank you.
