Artist Statement
I have always been interested in figurative works. Most of my works are imaginary, but the subject matter and people depicted, for the most part are real to me. I believe that my paintings do not require explanation. I would like the viewer to come up with their own interpretations and perhaps create a story of their own. My paintings are many times, peep holes into people's lives. So much of our lives are influenced by interaction with another person. People rely on other people one way or another and create unique circumstances that make each others' lives distinct. Those stories fascinate me, and I rely heavily on that as a source of inspiration and subject matter in most of my works. [PLUS...]
