I paint theatrical psychic landscapes that use languages drawn from art history, such as romanticism, abstraction and the baroque. Illusions of space and atmosphere, seek to have a bodily impact on the viewer. This is confounded by painterly applications, which unapologetically delight in the daubs, drips and drenches of pure pigments and mediums.
In the land of the psyche everything is mind, every plant, mountain and cloud. All substance is malleable and flowing. Each painting is a circus troupe of avatars that hope to meet and dance with the avatars of your structure of experience.
