About Me
For me, beauty lies in the simple and the ordinary, the everyday scenes and objects you pass by on a daily basis. I want the viewer to reconsider everyday life through my presentation of common objects and scenes. I try to portray a unique vision of my subjects, so that everyday life becomes a little less invisible.
Mediums Used
Oil, acrylic, watercolor, casein
Style of Work
My work consists of representational still life and landscape, in oil, watercolor and acrylic, based in academic fundamentals and a realistic approach. Although the palette and color relationships, at times, push that definition somewhat. My strength is in design, along with a focus on simplicity. I like the contrast and tensions that occur when juxtaposing objects and shapes which at first thought may seem to be mismatched. By using a range of palettes, I can explore how color changes the appearance and relationships of objects to one another. I use eclectic combinations of color, form and asymmetrical composition to force the viewer to reconsider their perspective on the everyday.
