We all have our own unique hopes and fears, dreams and pains, talents and experiences. Those near and close to us, our family and friends, know where we have been, accept what we have become and, still, gently allow us to grow. Such growing space provides the unique opportunity for the extraordinary, based upon my time honored belief that ....NO ONE IS ORDINARY.

A combination of psychological intuition, observation and experience has inspired me to craft visual interpretations of peoples’ environments thru the medium of modern technology and materials. My experiences have lead me to create energetic dreamscapes portraying an odd mixture of human composition, emotional experience, and surreal motion that focuses on the idea that people are connected to themselves, their experiences, and to the world in such a way that we are not apart from our reality but a part of it.

The evolution of my work incorporates the use of ink, photography, and my knowledge of comic book art to produce images that focus on a panoply of experience(s) while using a build up of brush strokes and bold colors. Inspiration is often found by looking to past artists like Caravaggio for his use of light and expression, Boghosian and Peters for their mixed media construction pieces, the Furturists for the use of movement, the Impressionists for the use of color and brush strokes, and Bennett for his use of color and detail to transform portraiture to a vibrant array of color.

My current project is titled: PURE.
PURE is a story built around the small nation of Seyns. It is governed by 7 feuding Western defined families; each with unique characteristics. They are privileged. The privileged don the ornate clothing and jewelry of money, beauty, and corruption. Their golden exterior and sky blue eyes belie any preoccupation with altruism, for the commoners serve as mere stepping-stones to money, power and useless things.

The Others do not fit in to society due to a substantial shortage of earthly possessions or status. The Others cannot camouflage their destitution. They live out side of Seyns and can only enter the nations walls to serve.

Thanks for taking a look at my profile. I have been very fortunate to find some incredible models and other artists to work with. I use this port to find other artists and models to collaborate with in the hope that we can benefit each other by pushing ourselves out of our comfort zones. I love working with different people because it allows me to grow and push myself.
