gently
collage and oil on canvas, 40″ x 41″
“I see the world as a dangerous place. However, I am seasoned enough to see the absurdity of it all. My cartoon characters represent both the comedy and tragedy of humanity. In their childlike iconography, they embody a sense of innocent playfulness, yet in their monstrous rendering a dark humor is reflected. This dichotomy creates an interesting tension. In my larger paintings, I invite the viewer in with nice colors and pretty surfaces. But if you look closer, the bite is there.”

the other side of sorrow
acrylic on canvas over panel, 48″ x 48″, 2005
“Fragments of bird wings, seed pods, hives, insects and petals rest along side ragged swatches of unpredictable color with sometimes subtle, sometimes not, counterpoints of pencil drawing, etching, dripping and stamping.”

daydream directly
acrylic and mixed media on canvas, 48″ x 36″
“Often these marks will reflect architectural landscapes, roads, maps, repeated patterns, or colors as if seen from above or as recalled from within, a sort of visual record book of the mind.”

buscando la sombra
“Es un juego de tiempos que oscila entre el pasado y el presente, como un creador ficticio que incide en la obra en distintos planteamientos, que conducen a un mismo fin: el diálogo continuo entre las expresiones materiales y aquellas que no se ven pero que están ahí.”
