Zen Coffee Stain Painting

My art explores the nature of reality from personal emotions to religious images. Through my art, I visualize my emotional, personal, spiritual, and mundane experiences. Artistically I pull from a variety of sources like cliches and stereotypes, various symbols and iconography, from cinema, the history of art, and that which captures my imagination. Everything that I internalize is expressed in my art as a personalized and multi-layered reality. In this personalized reality, the fantastic and mundane exist side by side. My living dream reality creates a space for me where everyday reality can be re-ordered in new ways. To create a personalized cosmos, which daily experience can be filtered through. The work becomes a subjective expression of how I experience the objective world. Within this multi-faceted world, the beautiful and the nightmarish exist together.
