Artist Statement

 While using the world of magic as a metaphor for life, I contemplate the way that humans attempt to stop and preserve moments in visual images, and written words. The brief moments that are grasped, live on in time. My recent works show glimpses of past dreams which now dance on the surface of the canvases. The pieces are inspired by legends of my ancestors, blended with observations of surrounding phenomena.

   The art is layered with many different materials, forming textured collages, and assemblages. The intricate, uneven surfaces, exemplify the complexity of the human experience.
