ABOUT   ME

What differentiates one artist from another is their perspective—that unique take on the internal/external world that ideally  pulls the viewer in.  As an American artist living in Paris, I am  a cultural hybrid straddling two vastly different civilizations, remaining somewhat alien in both. Observing my reality from this bifocal vantage point has informed  my art and  provided me with an exceptionally fertile breeding ground for new material.

Essentially my work questions all things conventional:  commitment/responsibility, social integration, stereotype/identity, and all stages of maturing (birth, youth, marriage, family, mid-life, the randomness of death & beyond).  In an effort to defy gravity, my pieces are often light on the surface, but  multi-layered in message.
