ARTIST STATEMENT:
Overall my work is about making opposites connect to create a poetic
effect. I look for contrasts, both those inherent in the subject
and those formal ones that occur in the process of composing a work.
Although I carefully plan a composition I want media manipulation and
expressive marks to push reality beyond the merely descriptive.
