"I believe art must be a true reflection of the artist. An honest, self-disclosing glimpse into an artists soul. My work is figurative, only because I find my expression more fulfilling when the figure is used properly.
It is not my goal to copy old, cliche ideas that mimic hot selling art, nor is it my ideal to catch the exact likeness of a model.
Instead, I want the figure to be a vehicle into the feelings and emotions that drive me to create art.
I want the viewer to look at my work and see the emotions I had when I created my artwork.
Then, I want the viewer to relate that feeling with one similar to one they have felt, so that they can personally connect with the work."
