"Travelling the better part of my life, and painting for the past eleven years, my art depicts what I consider deserves attention or should be lingered upon in life. As a painter, my belief is that moments are gorgeous and fleeting, people are over-photographed and not meditated upon, and intentional living is a choice. I like to press pause, capture life as it is lived and appreciate it- whether that be the eyes of a young immigrant, the curves of the human form, or the tabacco stained beard of my neighborhood hobo."
