Artist Statement

In the way that a poet would seek to understand language with the goal of approaching the sublime, I have tried to understand painting with  similar purpose. The ability to move beyond the literal towards a truth. The tools of a painter are akin to that of a poet, words and their placement, language and its rhythm. I am painting poems, images that dance between realism and abstraction, text and flesh, with the hope that the viewer experiences rather than views.
