Biografia
By merging dreams and realities, painting and photography blend, and left is the beauty of the connection made, authenticity of raw feeling, and the candid familiarity of that captured moment’s impression. Words, as images, run through identifing our histories. Most memorable often is the bearing of color. Color, or lack of it, sets a mood, can shock or satiate, remaining even through closed eyelids. Use of reflective materials, as an alternative to color, is a form of invitation for an observer to enter the image itself, the border between a painting and its environment are erased. My work explores emotions, incorporating color, texture, and the confrontational subject, imploring an immediate reaction and a fervent lasting impact.
