Artist Statement:

Amalgamation:

    A concoction of visual allegories inspired  by Aesop’s Fables, Grimm’s Fairytales, and mythology.

I am an incessant reader, forever searching out the connections between the histories and the people that I surround myself with. Recently introduced to the archetypes, I’ve found a bastion of inspiration in the likes of Aesop, the Brother’s Grimm and Homer. This idea of drawing connections from the past to my peers has appeared and reappeared arbitrarily throughout my painting career, but only recently have I dedicated an entire body of work to it. It’s sometimes macabre and mysterious, at other times light hearted or satirical, and my use of mark making and color acts as a binder for this allegorical and rather fluid collection of paintings.
