About the Artist
b. 1983, Minneapolis, MN
Flagler College - St. Augustine, FL
Currently residing and working in Denver, CO
Transformation of memories, reality and make believe into one visual narrative fuels my creative process. Combing images taken from photographs, cinema, literature and my imagination, I produce hallucinatory atmospheric landscapes using acrylic, oil, pastel and gouache pigments. These landscapes exist between representation and partial abstraction creating an otherworldly quality to the environment enhanced with the use of vivid colors and inverted tones, suggesting that a transformation is taking place. Within these shifting landscapes a narration is occurring that includes explorations into human relationships with authority, politics, nature, reality and cosmic forces. My paintings are confrontational in nature, leaving the viewer with more questions than answers as a breakdown of communication is often taking place within my visual narratives.
