“When I was a kid, living in a dusty farm town in California, I watched a semitrailer, carrying hundreds of 5-gallon paint cans, lose its load on my neighborhood street. The whole scene of brilliant color, sticky texture and distinct fragrance was beyond my wildest imagination! To clean up the mess, the City came and unloaded piles of sand on this larger than life abstract painting; creating a cracked, traffic worn patchwork of pavement that continues to influence my work. To this day, I am forever chasing the wonder of the day it “rained” paint on my neighborhood street.” My work is a collection of unique and colorful abstractions inspired by this rare childhood experience. And while each painting invites the viewer into a world of riotous color and visceral experience, it is simultaneously exploring the complexity of self-identity and human relations. In our social interactions, how we perceive each other is based on what we see and what is allowed to be seen. This work challenges the viewer to sit with the tension of wanting to see more, wanting to know the "true colors," wanting to wipe away the course veneer that hides the true soul of another.

People ask where I get my inspiration for my paintings. When I was a kid, living in a dusty farm town in California, I watched a tractor-trailer carrying hundreds of 5 gallon paint cans lose its load right in front of my house. A million gushing containers of paint exploded before my eyes. The cracked and traffic worn pavement became an abstract painting that continues to influence my work to this day. As the little town grew up around "my painting", I sadly watched the decay that suburbia and 'progress' imposed on it, swearing that someday I would recreate the wonderment of that day when God rained paint on my street!
