Artist's Statement
In my still lifes, I respond to loose representations of organic and inorganic objects next to one another in dramatic compositions. Vintage next to vegetation. Things that have relationships, maybe in ways most don’t think of, maybe with a little twist. In my landscapes I’m always seeking out water and strong lights and darks.
I clearly enjoy painting shiny things…reflective, transparent and translucent. I shoot for compositions that are larger than life, tightly cropped or taken to the edge, almost to the point of uncomfortable. I strive to incorporate loose with refined brushstrokes, soft and hard edges, complementary colors in juxtaposition and true observation with exaggeration. All that being said…It’s purely about painting “The Light!”
