I believe art can activate thoughts and illuminate ideas through experiential data received from the work itself. The experience is recalled in the viewer's mind from an aesthetic language that was developed from one's past observations. Symbols become archetypes that transport one's ideas to another conscious level.

As an artist I am attracted to color and figure in a naive sense. The artist child in me reflects often serious issues that I like to represent in a playful manner. I've been painting and drawing this way ever since I was a child. In children's drawings the work is immediate with no thought; instead, instinct guides what is placed on the page. Often times the emotion is conveyed through the motion of the line.

I use the computer's vector-based binary language to create a similar emotional quality. I like to think I put a human touch to the computer image. The monitor is my canvas and the computer is just another brush. Ultimately my work speaks of the primitive in all of us,and the playfulness of picture-making which we all can relate to from our past.
