Painting: Fabric Series
I love playing with "pacing" in my work by combining rapid-processes with painfully slow ones. In this series I would start with a photo transfer on delicate upholstered fabric, and then work over the surface with sand, gold leafing, resin, and thread.

Painting: Motor City Series
Born the son of an automobile engineer, I spent most of my youth in industrial cities, surrounded by the abundance of rusting infrastructure and bellowing factories. I started to see a beauty in the chaos, a sublime mix of decay, anthropomorphism, and monumental scale. I often used industrial materials such as tar and grease to add a pungent odor to the imagery.
