ARTIST STATEMENT
As an artist who paints every day I try to find ways to keep my work fresh
but progressive. There is a necessity for me to make my work fun and colorful,
while always traversing the cusp of 'real' and 'abstract'. I want to pull
the world a part and keep everything about it that I love, and then take
all of those pieces and shape new worlds. There is sensation in my work,
light, time, space, color, and nostalgia. Hopefully, everyone who views
my work is able to find life and experiences within themselves to help
them define what they see.
