Statement
My paintings are modeled on the simple principle of human observation
and interaction. I paint what I feel. I believe that we are all
connected and my painting are reflective of our world and how
we live in it. My aim is to produce work that questions current
issuses in a gentle and sometimes provoking way. The most important
part of creating art is to give viewers visual and perhaps emotional
pleasure.
