STATEMENT

My work blurs the line between photography, drawing, and painting to create a fluid space where all these elements interact—some barely touching, some floating unmoored, others overlapping, creating new, more ambiguous imagery in the process. My source material is drawn from the natural world, always within the perimeters of my home. It is an on-going balancing act within this fluid space to evoke both a harmonious relationship and a sense of tension between the representational nature of photography and the ambiguity of non-objective painting.
