BIOGRAPHY
I am an artist, a freelance art critic, and curator. I have been painting professionally for 25 years and working digitally for 10. Although I was born and live in Chicago, I have traveled extensively in the USA, Europe Asia, and South Africa and have lived and worked in Indonesia, Belgium and South Africa. My paintings and digital images explore themes relating to travel in the creation of experience and memory - they are about the fictions we create and how these stories shape our lives, inventing narratives to make sense of our world and understand others and ourselves. Using photos from various places and digitally manipulating them I present experience and memory as an amalgam of the "real" and the invented.
