Artist Allegation

I'm not a slave to my own ideas.......I make my ideas work for me. I bring my own personal struggles and beliefs to create self expression and social commentary. I like to incorporate mixed media in some of my work as I find it can be a most effective tool to communicate my message to the viewer. While riffing on Abstract Expression, Pop, Minimal, Bauhaus and others style of Art, new ideas and questions come forth within my work. To quote Jed Peal, "It's an artist's responsibility to help us see the master in a contemporary way." My aspiration is to speak in a nostalgic rhythm with a contemporary feel.


"The issue is passion whether quiet or wild.
For passion is only recognized by the passionate."

Robert Motherwell

Action painting, sometimes called "gestural abstraction", is a style of painting in which paint is spontaneously dribbled, splashed or smeared onto the canvas, rather than being carefully applied. The resulting work often emphasizes the physical act of painting itself as an essential aspect of the finished work or concern of its artist.
