In search of my artistic identity, I am constantly exploring avenues of the unexpected, whether that might be techniques, materials, or subject matter. With that said, I strive for a continuity of style throughout all my paintings no matter what the subject. My paintings blur the line between fantasy and reality, using recognizable images, caught in an imagined world of shape, form, color and pattern. They challenge what we consider reality with arrangements of art elements and techniques that invite the viewer to escape into their dream-like existence. Although not blatantly environmental, I continue to explore endangered animals as subjects. By setting them in unexpected, symmetrical compositions, I encourage my audience to lose themselves in a yet to be explored, hallucinatory territory.
