My work is colorful, complex, and layered with meaning.  It reveals my interest in cultural icons and the transcendent nature of art. I often incorporate common imagery, rich in symbolism and associations, with organic forms, found objects and traditional and nontraditional art media and techniques.  Themes investigate nuances of the human condition and often parallel the significant threads of my life. Present in my work is the continual impulse to understand the unfathomable and seek meaning in the most mundane of experience.  Put succinctly, my art is my way of making sense out of life.
