BIOGRAPHY

The image tends to fluctuate between the poles of abstraction and figuration, the truth of the paint and illusion of the image, the personal and archetypal. Essentially, the work begins with an abstract soul, composed of lead and carbon and mineral spirits, and eventually is layered with various forms of oils and iron oxides, not dissimilar from our blood, which brings the form into time, place, and at times, a social context. The technique is paired with, and symbiotic to, the concept.
