The characters I draw are odd and exaggerated and isolate themselves in their raw, over-emotional states. A spiritual fortitude resounds in each subject as they connect to the animals and other figures. The drawings intermingle vulnerability with strength, melancholy with humor.

Surrounding the form is white space. This white expanse is used to further isolate the figure, and also suggests a blinding state of dream or memory; a stark flash of insight. The elements are personal; formed from dreams, family photographs, and memories pieced together.


I live and work in Brooklyn, NY.
