I paint perspective fractalinear geometry with light and color to explore these ideas. While the traditions of western painting inspire my work from my formal education, my childhood of comics, cartoons and robot toys continue to fuel my imagination. Monumental, minimal forms merge with minute repetitive textures to create images influenced both by Renaissance tapestries and the digital crawls on a jumbo-tron screen. Kinetic robotic clusters and vessels dominate the foreground to bridge the gap between formal abstraction and narrative painting. Infrastructure, transportation, linguistics and mass communication are unified to expand, colonize, and continue the story.
Through the act of creating a tactile image in all its physicality, I seek to return the viewer to individual reality and emotional standing. Painting is a time based organic process based as much in thought as it is in action. To that end, I construct images with material divisions that are at once unified. My goal is that the viewer may take from these images some unique personal memory blended with a sense of new discovery.
