I am a modernist abstract painter with a pop sensibility. My works balance the formal with the playful, paring down shapes and ideas into their most basic forms. It is a search for clarity and humor, as is evidenced by the shapes and colors in my paintings: cartoony, bright, blobby and fun. But, like life itself, there is an undercurrent of conflict beneath the whimsy, as reflected in the tension and interaction between the shapes.

Ultimately, it is important that the viewers become involved with the paintings, tempting them to stay long enough with the images to connect to a narrative that is ambiguous, yet taps into the specifics and subtleties of their own lives.
