My current medium, photo painting, occupies a space between photography and fine art. Through layering, combining and collaging, photographic images become like pigment — functioning not as documentation but as material. Some works evolve over years; others arrive through sudden and unexpected convergences. Regardless of duration, each piece is a process of inquiry — an attempt to wrestle with questions of divinity, perception and the human condition.
Compositions are rooted in figuration, narrative and allegory. I draw visual material from global wanderings: environments, patterns and textures, signage, animal life, human activity. These fragments, collected from life as it is lived, dislodge my assumptions and help me realize I have much to learn — and this realization becomes the mental gesso on which each work begins.
Creation, for me, is both experiment and devotion. I work meditatively, allowing images to suggest meanings, and from there I express and refine. When a composition opens a spiritual question or reveals an unexpected resonance, I believe I’ve begun to arrive at something essential.
My work has won several awards, has been exhibited in select galleries and is held in a number of private collections. To find out more, offer your perspective or to acquire a piece, send a note via the contact.
