Artist Statement
Although much of my artwork and imagery originates from science fiction, my recent work is rooted in mythological stories, and themes. I am currently experimenting with compositions that are inspired by pinball playfields (game boards) and British Vorticism (c.1914). Story related patterns are employed to simultaneously modify themes and further animate the paintings.
I use layers of thin acrylic paint, as well as spray paint, and paint markers to create my paintings. I usually work on Masonite panels or heavy acid-free paper.
My goal is to tell intriguing stories that are visually and thematically dynamic. I am hopeful that my interpretations of well-established mythological content will help the viewer to open their minds and question past perceptions of these themes.
