I have always loved stories and the intricacies of visual storytelling—sequential art, the layout and movement of panels, the beauty of linework and the elements of visual language. I also love abstract art. I feel that abstraction offers a choice of looking inward, as well as outward, and absolute freedom from a creative standpoint. Abstraction, by allowing free reign to the imagination, has the possibility of expanding our minds.
I am fascinated by human invention, and how humans have used creative thought to explore the mysteries of life and the universe. As I work, I often envision an environment in an imaginary dimension with different natural laws and perspective.
One of my favorite activities is taking walks at dusk, when the light is illusory and one’s mind is free to create images from rocks, tree stumps, or anything difficult to perceive in half-light. I see my work as a salute to the enigma of that in-between state, where one isn’t quite sure what is real or imaginary.
