Artist Statement:

My work is simply about the pure act of creating something. My work doesn't start with a plan, but forms its own direction and meaning as it is being made. The process is always spontaneous. I start with simple elements that become more complex and grow as I work on a piece. The end result is the product of one idea leading to another and so on until the piece has taken on a form of its own. Much of my work contains a kind of organic shifting between objectivity and abstraction, and chaos and order. Sometimes I will simplify my work to only a few elements, and other times a piece will take many months to complete.
