About
In the practice of painting, architectural elements are investigated. Drawing curiosity to shapes, colors, and patterns found in everyday surroundings. Photographs are edited, drawn digitally, then hand-drawn and painted on canvas. By isolating and transforming fragments of a larger structure, viewers are invited to explore familiar elements from a new perspective.
The tedious process of making conscious choices from beginning to end is valued. The digital image is transformed into a physical human-painted painting, giving importance to the small imperfections. Even more than that, this way of working offers the opportunity to make subtle adjustments along the way. It is often precisely these adjustments that cause an image to vibrate or that create an alienating effect that is most surprising and holds the viewer's gaze for longer.
