I take the ‘still’ out of still life. 

I stretch the boundaries and break rules by deconstructing still life realism. Working from pencil sketches and value studies, I move to the canvas to create awkward, lively compositions. I indulge myself in the movement of expressive mark making, and in blending layers of color. I let go and trust my instincts which allows my mind to wander freely...to play with curiosity and experimentation. 

I invite the viewer to seek levity in my paintings…if only for a moment.
