I approach a blank canvas with anticipation and without any preconceived ideas. A story slowly unfolds and a dialogue is opened between the various elements. I draw my inspiration from various sources: magazines and newspaper images, my studio tools, my household objects, toys, paintings that I admire, as well as images in my imagination. In my latest series of paintings, I intently wanted to give more emphasis to the brushwork and less to the graphical aspect of my work. I limited my palette and worked more with shapes and lines. I also experimented with layering the figures on the canvas and utilizing the multiple layers as a tool to input a time element. While most of the figures and icons in this series remain the same as the last five years or so of my work, new elements found heir way into my canvas. While my work is mostly related to my personal experiences, some global events could not have been omitted.
