ABOUT THE ARTWORK

The exchange between the linear and the gestural, so much a part of my work, is here again, but the juxtaposition is made greater through broader, softer color fields and sharper, more precise middle ground shapes topped by sculptural shocks of color and sweeping strokes. I am not using masking on my hard-edged shapes on these, instead relying on hand-painting technique. This brings a range of experiences when viewing the canvases at different ranges and underscores the interplay at the center of this work. Color is a significant part of this exploration as well. A rich mixture of high contrast colors and closely related color values brings further revelation on each viewing.

BIOGRAPHY I am most interested in exploring belief systems, the birth and death of the American Dream, the nature and validity of desire, as well as identity and loss on a personal level. Visually, my work lies at the intersection of the organic, the geometric, the iconic, the abstract, and the found. All of that takes shape into mostly large-scale assemblage pieces that hover in between mediums. I feel like my body of work can be encapsulated in three words :: abstraction, definition and deconstruction. I have had works appear in juried art shows across the US, shown with selected galleries, have shown in several cities with The Other Art Fair, had my work featured on the album art for multi-platinum-selling musical artist Andy Grammer, been chosen from over 100,000 artists to be featured in the Saatchi Art catalog, had my work published in multiple art magazines and publications, and was selected for inclusion in the London Art Biennale. STATEMENT I am a mixed media visual artist. The rhythmic, the esoteric, the mystic, the poetic, and the intuitive drive my work. All of those shape my aesthetic and give my pieces backbone. The breadth of the sublime, the mist of inner spaces, and the intrinsically American are also found on my canvases. My long background as both a writer and designer roots the abstract work in language, both conceptual and visual.
