Artist Statement
Emerging from layers of oil paint, chalk and pastel, my paintings unveil biographic symbolist imagery. I’m investigating subconscious approaches, alongside personal symbology, to create pieces that shift between introspection and light absurdity. Blending interests in classical painting techniques with the spontaneity of automatic drawing, I explore that balance in my work, creating a synthesis.
