Alternating between modern art and pop cultures, I create paintings working directly and urgently in response to my social environment. My approach as a fine artist is to draw on the power of mass media and pop culture, while repurposing its icons, imagery and techniques to deliver a more personal artistic statement. Through the use of meaningful juxtaposition and social commentary, my work is an exploration of the irony, contradiction, parallels and harmony to be found in todays life. My favorite mediums are acrylic, oil sticks, resin and vintage comics. Whenever I create a piece of art my intention is to visually stimulate the observer to look deeper through the layers, to motivate and to bring joy. My creative process is straight forward, unmistakable, and direct. I am here to make a statement, to be a force, and to entice the viewer to think, to feel, and to be here and now. And I hope that every piece of art that you discover here enhances your life the way that they’ve enhanced mine.
