Artist Statement

I was born with a look of utter disbelief and that feeling has continued into my adulthood. Always drawn to the unusual, it is natural that i pursued an artistic life. I studied art in undergrad as well as post graduate work in psychology. Ive also studied classical realism for years including painting and drawing with David Hardy, Noah Buchanan and several other amazing artists.

For me paintings capture a snapshot of history from a subjective experience. Art history walks us through each artist’s individual perspective of time, culture, politics, etc. Painting has been a way for me to funnel my energy both emotionally and analytically and tell my own subjective experience of the absurdity of existence, while also contributing to my life with both meaning and purpose.
