Artists Statement

Repetition, series, and transparency uncover the past, present and future; opening dusty boxes of nostalgia, happiness and character related to autobiographical history.
Techniques such as layering, colour, scale, and opacity highlight elements of memory and abstract thought using a macro and micro lens to represent recollections of past experiences.
Working in a wide variety of materials and formats, the artist demonstrates a progressive vocabulary in oil and water-based painting and drawing media. An encounter with the multilayered work evolves page by page, rather than in complete chapters… waiting for the more curious to explore.
