As a product of generation X, my life straddles the pre- and post-tech boom. During the early part of my life, I might come across a handful of images or illustrations while researching a topic in a library or encyclopedia. Presently, the amount of images available via the Internet is seemingly infinite and sometimes overwhelming.

This body of work emerges from an interest in the inundation of images and the mental layering that occurs as we experience, process, and recall them. The elements that compose these paintings are coalescing fragments that teeter between cooperation and individualism. In some instances, the interweaving layers come together to provide a greater clarity, while in others they convolute. Still, in some pieces, unique moments ultimately prevail.
