I make for my wandering eye. In a world where we all seem to be running around moving from one thing to the next, I find myself needing to tighten my grasp on the beautiful wonder of noticing. Trying to preserve those memories and moments but not just as they were, but as I remember them. The split seconds of quiet, of serenity, of sweetness.
Not all my work explores beauty, because not every curiosity discovers aesthetics, because some moments are funny, or sad, or so many other things. I am not concerned with the realness in the image but instead the realness in experience. I am interested in the relationship with the moment, the thoughts, the emotions, the mood. This curiosity that drives my subject matter also drives my practice. While I am a painter, I am curious about material and space and don't shy away from unconventional methods.
