fine art
Large-format works conceived through story and symbol, staged and captured on 4×5 film,
the first movement of a single artistic vision.
From film slide to digital tablet to oil on canvas, each stage patiently informs the next.
What emerges is more than a painting. It is a sculpted presence, quietly holding the gravity and mystery of a world shaped through countless acts of deliberate attention.
Artist Statement
a lover of convulsive beauty,
attentive to ritual, feverish with creative fire,
shaped by study, exploration, and devotion.
multilingual; fluent in the languages of image-making, symbolism, alchemy,
and the sacred art of self-decoration.
a painter’s soul, as gentle as the wise woman’s knowing,
drawn equally to restraint and excess, silence and spectacle.
a kaleidoscope bestowed with consciousness
and aspirations towards the infinite,
yearning to lean softly against the cheek of God.
the work moves through archetypal terrain;
mythic, psychological, and erotic,
encoding meaning into form, objects, and in the spaces we inhabit.
the practice seeks to reanimate what modern life has thinned or forgotten:
saturnalia,
the ephemera of myth and dreams,
the immortal thirst for splendor.
each work is an invitation into heightened attention;
to stand at a threshold of the known and the ineffable,
and to encounter beauty not as decoration,
but as a force that refines perception, presence, and becoming.
