Artist Statement
I work across a number of mediums, including drawing, painting, and collage. My practice is characterized by a willingness to take risks in the ongoing investigation into new materials and visual languages. I value failure as a way of moving forward. I find that living with these paintings brings quiet support, joy. They whisper answers to questions. They listen as well as speak. These paintings seep in, and serve as good companions.
