Artist statement
I paint interiors – human interiors. I turn people inside out, revealing their spirit, and mine, and – hopefully, when you look at them – yours.
My figures straddle two worlds. They emerge from an undifferentiated place, recognizable forms mixed with remnants of an abstract whole, like a creature just breaking the surface of the ocean, its shape still distorted by the water’s lens.
Improvisation, chance, accident and surprise are central to my practice. I try to keep a portal open to my unconscious, and there’s a sense of collaborating with something larger than myself. This results in images I could neither plan nor duplicate.
Currently a studio artist at Artspace in Raleigh, NC.
