Artist Statement:: Some people create as an “escape” or to “get away”, but I feel creating draws you even more into the world. Everything I create is based on things that I see in my world. I can’t escape it. Whatever subject I am working on… an object, a person, a situation, a moment in time… draws my complete attention, helping me to see all its components separately. I pull it apart, to its bare essentials, and this allows me to see the infinite layers of which all things consist. By layering and re-layering my subject, I am able to alter the reality from which it originated and create a new reality in which the subject is now exposed.

Art is a direct gift from God.

Embrace it, and each other.
