Artist's Statement:
My goal or artistic process is to examine personal relationships and feelings in a humorous way using a multitude of imagery from everywhere. I like to blend found imagery with my drawing and painting to create something new. I look to imagery made for children as well as stickers to capture and express a child-like perspective on "Adult" subjects. I am interested in commenting on the stereotypes which exist in female and male relationships as well as exploring the mysteries of my own perceptions and desires. I want my art to envelope the viewer with color, humor and feeling.
In the past few years I have started to explore the relationship of light and dark and their association with positive and negative emotions. I also have put together several collections of "ugly" paintings with text which explore my personal relationships with men, family and people in my life. All my art is original.
