"The process of creating is an endless journey. I explore life from the ground up, from the painful to the playful. On the street is where I get inspiration and materials for many of my projects. A thoroughly urban sensibility of the images adds tangible dimension to the elusive, soulful nature of each piece’s energy”

I started creating in upstate New York, in the region called the Thousand Islands located on the St. Lawrence River. Later moved to Montauk, New York on Long Island where I continued my creative process and now creating in Fort Montgomery New York. Street Art style presents throughout my entire artistic production: a balance of chaos and control. I have always noticed things a bit off centered, how light effects the appearance of objects throughout the day and the beauty in objects that are worn, torn, ragged, chipped and cracked. My life experience thus far has led to improvisational and direct action in the arts. I fuse together paint, photography, construction material and found objects for many of my projects. Assemblage is my passion.
