His photographic work has been selected for juried exhibits at University of North Florida, Eastern Carolina University, Artspace New Haven, the Solaris Film Festival (Vienna, Austria), the Arts at Yale Health, and many more. He’s been invited to speak many times on his photography work and on his filmmaking/animation work. I think that I create, in order to express-the absurdities of being alive, the good and the bad. I grew up in southwestern Virginia, far away from art museums and at that time there was no internet. Nevertheless, I loved drawing people I knew, and things that would catch my eye. In college, I entered as a psychology major, but began taking classes and ultimately majored in Art. I developed a broad skill set. I draw, paint, do photography, animation, and graphic design. While still a student of Psychology, I interned in the local psychiatric institution and had constant direct experiences with the patients. I like to joke that, at the end of my internship, I was “cured” of my desire to become a psychologist. The experiences remained with me, though. Some were scary, some were touching, even funny in an unexpected way. All were unpolished, raw, and human. This is the very stuff that I strive to express in my artwork. Sometimes it's expressed through Absurdist or Surrealist means, sometimes through Documentary work. But my focus is, and has always been, the irrational side of human beings.
