I paint my point of view of my lived experience - waking up before a love in the morning light, a former-love gazed post-car crash, remembering my grandmother’s bedroom lit by red lights lighting carnations from a family farm. My paintings are my remembrances - of moments and recollections - where the viewer becomes the artist - and the artist, a viewer. Watching these works through a single, perhaps unreliable perspective, with wonky lines and curved edges that rely on a magical sense of realism. These are foundations to my painting’s eye view - focusing on what I see and witness in this modern life. Each page a chapter or page of my livelihood. Each painting invites the viewer to jump in as the artist - as myself. A moment of solitude offered within gestural paint marks, eagerly capturing past and tender moments in time.
