"Imagery is closely associated with process. The mood and content of the work is largely a product of its surface and substance. The works begin on fresco where pigment is stained into wet plaster, creating either an image or an evocative worn surface. Once dry, multiple rounds of scraping and layering of paint takes place. Process is used to reveal small vignettes of development of the painting. Once the imagery has come together, illumination of the work with transparent glazes of oil color begins. Each oil glaze works through other much like vellums, giving the painting an inner luminosity. Ultimately, I hope these paintings resonate with a broad spectrum of people, engaging the viewer in present time with a modern beauty created through worn surfaces and contemporary imagery.
