My Images
I believe art is communication. Every time I create an image on canvas, I am relaying part of myself to the viewer, exposing a fragment of inner dialogue to the outside world.When I was younger, I put as much enthusiasm in writing as I did into painting. I wanted to tell a story with everything I made. Over the years, I have discovered I am able to accomplish this with more range and beauty with a brush then I ever was able to with a pen.
I work mostly with the figure, exploring colors and structure of living flesh. The human body has been a constant in my work over the years, and I am still trying to catch the perfection of anatomy in motion on canvas.
Each person that I paint has a story to tell, from the pattern of their skin to the expression in their eyes. I use each of these different elements of their persona to make up the bigger picture, and to communicate their being as a whole on the canvas.
