Artist Recognition
Artist featured in a collection
In this painting we see a multicolored and abstracted horse and bear. The horse is seen to be nuzzling or comforting her friend- who seems disinterested and downcast. Though a fearsome creature, (with great, big extended claws), the bear is clearly absorbed in thought. His body is covered in stripes, as if he’s trapped in a cage. (Is it a cage of his own making? What will set him free)? At the feet of the bear, we see a sharp and pointy contraption- which might be thought of as a bear trap. Emanating from the trap, letters float up, some forwards and backwards, one word spells out “Happy”, (somewhat ironically). The sky above is dark and foreboding indicating danger. The outcome of this union is unknown. I think of these two characters as stand ins for the self, in particular a relationship I have. Is happiness a trick or a trap? Can different species join together harmoniously? As night comes, will the bear skulk off only to return to kill and consume his friend? Or, despite their differences, will they curl up together for warmth? Can different people with competing backgrounds align for an atypical, yet happy union? All things shall be revealed in time.

United States
I maintain a studio in an artist colony in Los Angeles, California. Much of my recent work reflects on contemporary society and the political upheaval currently featured on the news. My interpretations are combined with my unconscious and become self-portraits of sorts- of a dark and quirky inner life. No one meaning predominates, only states of ambiguity, where strong undercurrents of emotion combine with murky, dream-like scenes of danger and destruction and contribute to a disjointed sense of unease in an unpredictable world.
