This recent work is a visual combination of botanical life and improvised imagery that reference current human and natural events. These paintings may be referred to as “Quasi-Botanical” because they turn toward a traditionally surrealist or lyrical interpretation of the environment using botanical forms metaphorically. Leaves, trees, rhizomes and microorganisms interweave into a dual dimensioned [...]

I am painting the body as vehicle, simple forms with wheels or wings. These forms often appear inflated as with inhaled breath. The background encases these forms in a floating ungrounded space. These car, train, rocketand plane-like forms imply movement yet their energy is still, reflective and contemplative. These forms are single, twinned or shadowed, [...]

For the past few years I have been interested in still life photography and in defining (or rather redefining) what that means.
