Place is priority in my work, the detangling of random memories and influence on what connects current events to a shared human experience. Through my paintings and drawings, I explore deeper themes via narrative, symbolism, and abstraction. It starts with my own collection of photographs, sketches, and experiences, repeatedly flipping through an archive of inconsequential moments and hyper aware that each location is influenced by subtle familiar signals. From there I explore color, texture, and detail to reimagine sights that are ingrained in my memory or others. Working within these guidelines, I have developed collections around Night Windows, wildfires, gardens, mountainous landscapes, and escapist vistas. The series Night Windows signals the intuitive repetition of the everyday that releases the unfolding of a revere, such as a hypnotist uses their watch to induce a trance. This simple subject has allowed me to grapple with formal challenges in painting related to depth, negative space, surface, color, and edge since 2007. When a viewer is excited by this project because they also find joy, solace and even a little embarrassment looking into other's windows, I'm grateful for the connection. This evocative series can bring about feelings of loneliness, longing, and isolation, but it also stimulates curiosity, delight, imagination, and tranquility. A simple window and light within tells the story of all of us.
