Artist Statement

­­­­­

Wouldst thou like to live deliciously? That is the question. I like to keep a porous mind, soaking in ideas and images as I find them, let them mingle, marinade and meld together to find a form that reveals what drew me to them in the first instance. I find these morsels in paintings, films, songs, poetry, the most exceptional of conversations and the most fulfilling company. I want to turn these transformative moments into paintings that open you up and soak into you leaving you with an ineffable sensation. I want to create pictures that simultaneously face my personal consciousness and the collective consciousness, pictures that create the itch they scratch and leave you comforted, curious and craving. That desire is the endless unrest that keeps me painting.
