Artist Statement:
Currently, my work is
comprised of portraiture and
figurative works taken from
life. I incorporate my
artwork in my daily activites:
going to Starbucks in the
morning, visiting a doctors
office, heading out to DMV or
simply picking up some
groceries. I often travel out
as far as Poolesville for a
gallon of milk -- knowing that
I can find new faces, new
landscapes, etc., that are not
to be found at the local
grocery store in Bethesda.
Because I draw from life, my
subjects are usually not aware
of being re-presented. They
move, they wiggle, they get
blocked by other people or the
simply leave within moments
after I have begun.
Consequently, all of this work
is completed rapidly. I
sometimes have to borrow a
nearby nose or other body part
to finish my work --making the
occassional portrait somewhat
chimeric.
