Artist Statment

Throughout my life, I have found myself fascinated by the natural world and its consistency to persevere. As humans live in relation to their natural environment our presence changes the course of how the environment evolves, as result effecting our existence. It is this quiet struggle that we tend to overlook, in my work.  I have titled this series “ Remains in Nature.” 

In my pieces I approach the traditional genre of the still life from modern perspective. The juxtaposition of of natural items with human items intertwined creates the feeling enmeshment. With the use of color and texture I draw my viewer in for a closer look to the strange, yet beautiful images created with what is otherwise discarded and overlooked.
