Artist Statement:
I am a storyteller and author.
My visual stories are
sometimes truthful, sometimes
fictitious, sometimes a mix of
both, but always introduce a
mystery waiting to be solved.

text at a time. Working this
way is labor intensive but
allows the storyline to
evolve. The visual surface
ultimately becomes a narrative
that melds collage,
photographs, digital images,
drawing, and painting that
invites the viewer to
participate. The stories
always seem to be complete at
first glance, yet through the
use of phantom images what is
unseen and imagined by the
viewer is just as important to
the meaning and understanding
of the work. ...
