Stop the World, I Want to Get Off Painting

I am a Painter, Sculptor, Writer, Filmmaker, Peace Activist, Designer of furniture, interiors, landscapes and Golden Artist Colors Certified Working Artist Lecturer. I have boundless enthusiasm for all things creative. I work snippets of newspaper text and headlines from around the world into many of my abstract figurative paintings. These pieces of newsprint act as time-coding elements to root the individual piece to the period in which it was created, and while subtle, this process also helps contribute to the rich surface texture imparted upon every work. My inspiration comes from a hyper awareness and observation of the human condition.
