ABOUT MY WORK
My paintings explore a freeze-frame moment in time and the situations and relationships which manifest within. My pure abstracts are derived from my wrecking yard photos and exhibit the beauty and energy derived from this chaos. My photography reveals the hidden world of visual wonder found within the degradation of metal.
