Artist Statement
My work represents the collected memories of moments that we
often take for granted. Existing in a limbo between natural and
artificial, action and frozen, the images depicted in these paintings
are both universal and personal. When we think of a wave, sunset,
or cloud, rarely do we conjure a detailed reference. Rather, our
memories are approximations of what those forms looked like to
us. This notion of multiple realities informs images that are both
past and present while simultaneously being neither.
