About The Artwork
This painting was inspired by a former student of mine, an Inupiaq (Native Alaskan), who told me that his elders encouraged him to go out on the ice and build a face in the snow and tell his sorrows to the face, and his ancestors would listen and try to intervene. As a native to the American South, I struggle with my life in the snow here in Alaska. This painting is an attempt to make peace with an element of nature that often feels like my enemy. This painting was done on a gallery wrapped canvas. The edge is painted black so there is no need to frame it necessarily.

United States
I'm a painter living and working in the Arctic. My work is usually built from layers and layers of images and paint, using a variety of tools and archival media. This method of constructing the final artwork feels authentic to me since it mimics how we build our identities over time, from erasures and mistakes, to contemplations and actions, to reversals and formation. My subject matter is often pulled from the natural world where I live, just near the arctic circle in Alaska: animals, mountains, symbols representing various kinds of weather, and the plant life found in the summers under the Midnight Sun. I live here for reasons of family, and my relationship to the environment is one I'm always trying to reconcile through my art.
