My intention with paintings is to draw out the threads from my subconscious. Many paintings start with initial sketch ideas that flash in my mind before sleeping, and I like to either write down the key elements or create a thumbnail sketch in a sketchbook by the bed. Often, a heavily image-based concept will gain layers of meaning and metaphorical interpretation over the many hours it takes to complete the work that were not apparent to me initially. Taking the project from idea to execution is always an act of inner discovery.
Frequent subjects combine elements of the human body with natural forms such as trees. I also like to combine evidence of human presence with animals in ways that emphasize our interrelation and effect on the world around us.
