Artist Statement

My paintings are about the timeline of human life, and its effect on art. For the last 15 years I have been deconstructing the subject matter. In as much as I enjoy the painterly challenge, the energy of my work derives from the paintings constant push pull of disintegration and ensuing impermanence.

My paintings have taken on a rectitude that runs parallel to my own aging. As we age, we become less visible by losing our contrasts and edges. The physical markers of our uniqueness fade, leaving a more abstract version of our former selves. But there is beauty in this process.
