In any given moment, part of me is considering the world in front of me, and part of me is dreaming. Perhaps this is the root of the multiplicities in my work.

As a fine artist influenced by years of work in theatrical technical production and design, and before that as an architect, it is unsurprising that I find myself constantly exploring the interplay of positive and negative spaces, solids and voids. Emotionally, I am engaged by color and movement, a pleasure found in the quotidian and the sublime, a sense of wonderment and vastness in the world. When I work, I am equally engaged in the technical processes and the expressive options open to me By overlaying multiple images in the same space, or exploring the same image across multiple media, I begin to create a sense of how I occupy the world.

I’m influenced by 18th century Japanese stencil work and printmaking, and by 19th century European iron-work. I’m inspired by 20th century surrealist painters, and by 21st century graffiti stencil artists—the big names who have crossed over into the gallery world and the completely anonymous artists whose work I see daily. All of these sources and more conspire to inform my explorations into edge and shape and color, subject and mood.

I hope you will enjoy the works on these pages, and that maybe they will create for you, as they do for me, a space to enter and occupy, with your own dreams and explorations.
