My paintings set the stage for addictive personalities and puts
them under a spotlight. Often pulling from past work environments
(typically bars) I explore an ongoing theme of nightlife, while
adding snippets of dreams, superstition, and fantasy. What does
superstition look like? A seedy underbelly, sometimes exposed
in plain sight and at other times peeking through the shadows.
Through the haze of debauchery lurks a sinister psychological
frisson in which an altered state of consciousness subverts reality
and appearances become deceptive.
