Artist Statement

My work is an evolutionary process founded in classical observational study, yet continually developing through cyclical stages of introspection, investigation, experimentation, and back again…beginning with the next artifact. The art I make are simple, visual vignettes that chronicle my private musings, travels and hopefully shared visual stories.
