I am drawn in and mesmerized by the artistic process
through which the imagination is visually realized.
Seeking to expose the obvious that is often overlooked;
I use color to offer a glimpse into the amazing natural
beauty that may otherwise remain unseen.
In my current work, I utilize found wood as a conduit
for an exploration of the energy found within. The grain
serves as my guide on a journey into the lines, shapes,
and flow of the composition of the wood. In transforming
the pieces of scrap wood that others thought as nothing
more than trash into works of art highlighting each
piece’s natural greatness, I hope to share the
idea that everything has an inherent beauty that will
shine through when the time is taken to look at it from
a new perspective.
