“Rooted in abstraction, I like to push my work in new directions, to surprise myself, and keep the limits of my painting wide open. Working in series, I develop a language specific to the mood or conceptual objectives I’m working on. Over the years, my work has seen many different stylistic evolutions. I see my arc of work much like that of an author. Each series is like a new book, different in tone, style and story. But they are all part of a larger archive, and each a meaningful piece of the whole.”
