Item Description

Untitled (you you you), 2010
acrylic on canvas, 24”x20”x1.75”

“Often a phrase playing in my mind or one that comes to me just before or in my sleep initiates a piece.  My figurative work is almost always narrative, though the stories becomes abstract as information is layered.  A figure will lead to another figure, which leads to another mark, which leads to the covering up of something to introduce something else.” – Artist’s statement
