All of my artwork draws from a wellspring of eclectic influences. It is always subjective, often political, usually introspective, occasionally nostalgic, and sometimes ironic or contradictory. I often see it as an alchemical formula that seeks to transform whatever is base, i.e. broken or discarded refuse, violent or absurd news items, or painful memories into something beautiful and transcendent. Sometimes it is a tongue-in-cheek voodoo incantation that I secretly hope will affect my destiny. Other times, it is a visual diary and simply documents whatever I am thinking about or feeling during the time it comes to be. It is always inspired by Nature and traditional aesthetic ideals of Truth and Beauty.
