My work is driven by a desire to dig deep into myself. There I often find my imagination running wild, inspired by astronauts and dinosaurs, outer galaxies and inner consciousness, the history of this planet and universe, and the stories that drive us to change and be better humans.
The paintings and prints I create are based in realism and have a tendency towards fantastic surrealism. In each work there is a connection to something personal in my own life experience that finds its way to the surface.
