I seek a balance
in my work that is free from fixed orientation, allowing the viewer
to trust his or her own preferences in displaying a piece. Though I
draw extensively on real-world inspiration, I prioritze color, texture,
and spontaneous gesture over concrete forms and explicit content. I
am interested in providing a place on which to rest the eyes while infusing
that place with energy and movement.
