The interlocking geometry I use in my paintings is usually hard- edged and flat and almost always biomorphic, interchanging the subjective and objective and suggesting a narrative relationship between them.

I always begin with a preparatory drawing, although it rarely survives intact by the time the painting is finished: it is the starting point of the conversation, making way for intuition, which favors pure painting over a specific conceptual practice or theory.

I work slowly, sometimes spending months on an individual painting. Over the passage of time, I distill the flotsam of the world around me into a sense of order expressed both through color and composition in an individual work.
