no matter where (not pictured here), 2008, oil and mixed media on linen, 60x72, everything, in your favor, 2006, oil and mixed media on linen, 60x72, i'll go if you go, 2008, oil and mixed media on linen, 60x72

My work has always been driven by a desire to embed concepts, interests, and critique into the material form of paintings. My work comes out of an interest in painting as a language in which invention, analysis, and the stuff of paint can work in concert with each other. These paintings feed off of the history of abstraction, physics, traditional eastern imagery, Chinese and Tibetan landscape motifs, digital imaging, and other sources. There is a constant flux between empty and full, atmospheric and graphic, abstract and figurative, quiet and psychedelic...

i'm such a huge gushing fan...see tons more work and the rest of the statement here.
