Biography
My art started with dance, but I have had a passion for making things since I could move my fingers. I am intrigued by complex stories, ones that may not explain anything to you but give evidence to how complicated our world can be.
My work has many layers consisting of mark making, colors, and abstract paint passages and I utilize the idea of pushing and pulling imagery within the painting to create a story with many influences.
Compared to my experience with dance they are very similar for both are a non verbal expression of what a person has learned or observed while living a life. How best to express that through ones artwork is a lifetime of exploration.
