I mostly make dense, vibrant paintings on paper, wood, & canvas with mixed media. They often combine expressionistic, graphic, & romantic elements that may be considered ‘outsider’ in style. Some are simple in layout & some are complex but all have an air of the confessional; they are deeply personal. My work is associative rather than direct. I gather & reach into memory & grab from life, combining colour & text to make an oblique commentary on my life & its place in the scheme of things. Historical references, culture, social commentary, abstraction & figuration are also used to create deliberate enigmas. There is no clear narrative as I filter & sample daily. What you see is a kaleidoscope of feelings. However raw the compositions, I always strive to bring poetry & aesthetics to the mix.
