Traveler

There are 2 main series that I focus on, Cityscapes and Structural/Perception. In my Cityscapes series I portray what a landscape feels like, what I remember about it. I paint everyday urban scenes that have some familiar subject matter, but painted through the eyes of someone from another dimension. I'm using color as value. I'm using alien color schemes. I'm abstracting scenes, using expressionism and impressionism. I'm not limiting my decision making to stay within the boundaries. When I have an idea, I paint it without a second thought. The first idea is always the most exciting. Which brings in the second series. Structural/Perception series reflects the more personal and emotional side of my work. Each painting, sometimes plastered with collage and cut paper, is another realm I can visit, away from our own dimension. Some pieces delve deeper into humanity. These structural dimension paintings are linked to current events, life’s trials and tribulations, and primal instincts. Where the cityscapes are more figurative, more outward and are based on my observation and memory.
