Artist Statement:
I try to remain open to all
images or visual combinations
that inspire me.
One consistent element is that
my paintings usually involve a
process of building up layers
through numerous revisions. I
often paint over canvases
several times, leaving
portions of the paintings
underneath partly visible.
Covering an existing painting
rather than starting from a
blank canvas can lead to more
unusual or interesting
compositions by forcing me to
make certain choices in
responding to the material.
The built up layers of paint
create a rich surface that
becomes an active element,
revealing the process of
experimentation and
revision....

| Your Personal Biography |
I am an artist currently based in Los Angeles, CA, primarily working in painting, photography and mixed media.
I began painting and drawing in the summer of 2000, studying with David Schoffman at the Brentwood Art Center. While attending Pomona College, I studied philosophy, music and poetry, before deciding to pursue a career as an artist. I later became an art major, studying with Enrique Martinez Celaya and Mercedes Teixido.
While the greatest impact on my work has been my own life, my formal studies in art and background in other fields have also influenced my work. I am also a composer, and my music is available at this website.
