On one hand my work is a simple homage to the elements of design and the deep rooted beauty therein, but this is more of a tool to reach a deeper psychological content in my paintings. What that content is I have never been able to completely express to my satisfaction. I do know it is not just a sentimental ode to things old and decrepit, (for that I have a mirror). Not all of my paintings have age or decay as subject matter but they still possess the same subliminal draw. I find kinship in the words of David Byrne who once said that the purpose of art is to elevate the mundane to the sublime. I don’t know if my paintings accomplish such lofty goals.Only you the viewer can be the judge.
