My illustrations, animations, and physical products revolve around the Gestalt Theory of Visual Perception, the concept that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. They provide responses to the following question posed by art historian Christine Poggi:

Does painting function as an aesthetically pleasing object (a “table”) or an extension of reality (a “tableau”)?

Since I enjoy allowing the direction of my artwork to be driven by concepts rather than specific materials, I combine techniques from different mediums including but not limited to graphite, ink, crayon, charcoal, watercolor, oil paint, ceramics, film photography, and printmaking.
