As you will see much of my work lives in this world which I like to call “lo-fi realism”. I paint realistic figures & objects, primarily from Rock ’N Roll and The Counter Culture. Everything you see is oil paint, derived from a combination of reference photos and my own creativity. 

I am deeply fascinated by “the look” of analog media and the impact it had on me growing up. Seeing the world through polaroid cameras and VHS tapes has been an aesthetic that I have strived to replicate in my paintings. The music of these decades, and my personal experiences while listening to this music provides the bulk of my inspiration as I get up in years and deal with my own feelings of nostalgia and sentimentality.
