Lives & works in Brooklyn, New York
These are hybrid paintings, combining elements of figure and landscape into abstract compositions. Utilizing layered strokes and marks of color to shape an image more discovered then planned. World travel influences, the cities, locals, figures and faces meld with nature, creating patterns with the possibility of forms materializing. They are a world of reflections, a mirror image of memory creating a place imaged.
