Artist Statement
My work externalizes the inner landscapes of subtle, contemplative states. These are inward-gazing paintings of emotional and phenomenological space. I aim to take the viewer somewhere indeterminate but real, to stir a memory of something once felt but not articulated. Way out beyond the world of names and things lie vast valleys untouched by mind. Meet me there.
