I am heavily influenced by all art but especilly western sculpture and Japanese Zen paintings. In most of my pieces I try to to bring these two opposites together. The bridge that brings them together is color. I have have a love or maybe more of an obession with color, I try to bring emotion to my paintings through color. Recently I have found both humor and strength in the 1940's and 50's pin-ups bringing my own interpreation to this iconic era.
I hold a BA in art education with emphasis in painting and drawing. |
