STATEMENT OF WORK

b.1993

portland,or - baltimore,md - brooklyn,nyc

My work explores the beauty in quotidian; objects and how we look at them, how they relate to people and the places they live, the beauty and depth in existence/presence. 

Dancing between loose philosophies, Hot/cold “dips” between figuration and abstraction, longing, ideas, poetry, failures, dreams, fears, love, observations and hubris my work lives in a haze similar to fog, in a studio, in brooklyn

The connecting theme in these works is moments of appreciation in isolation, finding sanctuary in the mundanity of life.

I work mostly oils on canvas or linen, with some photography and works on paper
