Artist Statement:
My Art is based heavily on subjective expressions of the human condition. I usually focus on the human form as a conduit for my ideas and sensibilities. The expressionists and neo-expressionist have greatly influenced me. Using the human body to transmogrify deeper psychological meanings in conjunction with the corporal world. My Art is in the same vein. I hope to bring my own experiences and feelings to expressionism and beyond. A current interest of mine is mixing Digital Photography with 3-D Computer generated figures-> (examples 1 2 3 ). I find the immediacy of Digital Photography a great enabler to express myself. Currently experimenting with Digital Filmmaking.
