As an artist, I observe and record matters relating to contemporary culture and its historic precedents. In my paintings I attempt to address the follies and foibles of human experience in the latter part of the twentieth century -- how some are a product of genuine attempts to better ourselves while others are results of myopia and unbridled arrogance. Historic and current cultural images and events are mixed into a tableau of unlikely relationships which pose questions and imply messages regarding the metaphysics of our lives.
