Artist Statement


I believe that art is a powerful form of communicating thoughts and inspiration, and capturing the essence of unique moments in life. Sometimes I develop an artistic image in my mind over a period of time based on an original thought provoking idea or insight. On other occasions I find myself having a moment of inspiration from an unrevealed source to create a new artwork or capture a unique moment through photography.

My artwork often captures thought provoking insights and inspiration, and brings them to life through transforming the ordinary into the extraordinary. All of us have thoughts and inspiration that emerge and are communicated through different means. My thoughts and inspiration come to life through the visual arts and take form as vibrant and extraordinary subject matter. My art draws the viewer in while sharing and inducing a moment of discovery, insight, and inspiration unique to each viewer.
