Artist's Statement & Thoughts & Stuff

Artist's Statement

​Painting strikes a chord in the soul and there is a dance, a process of applying colors and layers, shadows and nuances that are a discovery of the subject. It is creating a whole by adding up the sum of its parts. A painter becomes the vessel through which the subject speaks by utilizing colors like words or notes in a song. My portraits of musicians are intended to evoke a definitive mood and personality. I think that the way values are rendered in a drawing tend to push a piece to be able to speak to you. I love working with a high-contrast style that shows value ranges from deep black to bright white or color combinations that create a mood conducive to the musician. Many of my pieces tell a story, they contain fragments of memories that are expressed through thoughtful use of color and contrast. ​
