Artist Statement:

I want to explore the effects of light, shadow, and color on the landscape, urban or pastoral, and how they affect the mood and perception of human consciousness. In my paintings, people are often enveloped in a panoramic palette of reflection and light as they are moving into or observing an environment. Color also plays an important part in my process in that all things whether animate or inanimate are forever in motion because light and shadow are constantly breaking up into different colors in each different moment. At the same time, I want to show the beauty and awe of the urban or suburban environment by displaying the colors and intricacies of light and shadow.
