Process is at the center of my work both in its physical and conceptual content. I extrude, pour, drip, spill, spray, cut up, brush on and draw with paint and ink in my drawings, paintings and installations. I am interested in polarities and cycles; patterns that come undone, rejuvenation and oscillation, how the micro echoes the macro, the beauty of failed order and how the humorous can hint at the profound. Paint and ink, think and thin, fluid and solid create highly tactile accumulations bubbling with deviations and repetitions as elements build up and break down. I continually investigate how variations in materials and methods change the experience of a piece. A shifting color palette, transparency, and a vocabulary of repeating, organic visual elements reinforce ideas of malleability and transition in the work. Some works completely saturate their space and support. Layered to their utmost, they are self-contained objects. Others are much more open, existing in suspended states of disintegration or growth. These paintings reveal and amplify moments of fluctuation while flirting with depiction. Other dualities exist in the vocabulary of the works: translucent red dots look like blood cells and gumdrops, simultaneously. An intermingling of high and low, contemplation and ebullience, my work mixes wonder, celebration, persistence and unease.
