Artist Statement
For this group of works Imaginary Places/Imaginary Spaces, I
sought to explore common themes in my art such as the natural world, juxtaposed
against the feelings of fragility, anxiety and dread that color my everyday
life. I like to use strong graphic elements as a foil to oversentimentality,
and humor to beat off the gloom.
