FOCUS OF ARTWORK:

1. "Organic Grid" series: Abstract patterns providing a format to accommodate the mess, glee & disenchantment of life; also, my laboratory for exploring new ways to draw.

I am currently working as a Teaching Artist in several Buffalo Schools.  Although I mainly work with Photography and video, my more recent work has begun to incorporate a variety of media, such as embroidery, sculpture and collage.  Presently, I am trying to make work based on my fascination with clouds as ever changing forms.

Technically I am interested in following traditional methods to begin an artwork. then I look for the work to take me on a journey, with some surprises, leading to knowing. I intend, with my artwork, to go beyond realism; to express a thought or emotion with concinnity (harmony and elegance).

I work with a vocabulary of personal symbols which lead themselves to a constant mutation and re-invention. This vocabulary includes sexual elements, human body parts, motion and graffiti. I also use mythological symbols such as snakes, spirals, the ideas of good versus evil, fertility, life, death and interaction of male and female. These images are layered, building new forms which change into strange shapes, animals or creatures, many with the action of flying, falling, agitation or disintegration and this becomes my own personal mythology. I give these creatures a deceptive beauty and as you look closer they are not what you first perceive and can be amoral, evil and dangerous or just a slice of life you weren't expecting.

My work with black-and-white photography has focused on urban landscapes and industry. While exploring various locations in the US and Europe, I have captured the impact of evolutionary processes on the urban landscape, particularly, elements now in a state of disuse or abandonment.

I live in Buffalo NY and am about to graduate from Erie Community College. Next is a Bachelors Degree in Art, then, I plan to teach art after school.

Right now, I am currently working on a number of things, from illustrations for children’s books, to a number of art pieces being done in oil paints, pastels and a few other mediums, including artwork from school. I am not sure what inspires me to create art. It might be something I see or read, a serious thought, or even a funny thought that inspires me. Who knows but the end results are always interesting too me.
