Artist Statement:
My work is a collage of random thoughts and inspiration layered together through a series of improvisational sessions. Much of the content comes from my everyday life experiences. The end result is sometimes convoluted and abstract. It�s similar to a dream, where things get mixed together in strange ways. My theories and interpretations are documented for every painting, but remain open to interpretation by anyone.
