GoThe Subject matter of my work ranges from very personal to more broad themed human condition works. Whether political or personal many charactaristic threads bind the work together. It is both easy and hard to talk about your own work and the process that you go to create it. Independent of the viewers reaction to the individual finished works, I strive to always do several things for each project.
The subject matter always comes first and is followed by a lengthy research stage where images and contextual stories are gathered and edited.Date: 2005

This Blog is a work diary with step by step entries documenting many of my newest projects. The intent is for a consistant upload pattern to demonstrate my process.
Uneventful childhood marked with sporadic bouts of non-conformity. A mutual agreement on behalf of the public school system led to over a decade of unfocused study amongst the academia of many universities. After receiving several degrees (Fine Art Painting, Art History and Computer Science) and completing requirements for many additional, he was forced into the outside world. That world involved several years of blind groping for a methodology that allowed an application of aesthetic skills while introducing complex literary and political ideas and experiences. Few levels of employment allow the freedom to create without restraint and some time was spent pursuing a state of compromise. Unfortunately, none was found satisfactory and the far too common life of the starving artist was accepted. Many mediums subjects and styles were attempted while striving for a evermore loose and expressive style. It wasn’t until realizing the futility of fighting his strengths and embracing the obsessive compulsive side, that a turning point was made. Since the epiphanal painting that coalesced the concept of “Contiguous Fractured Abstraction” it has been a struggle to prevent the temporal commitment from overwhelming the passion of intent. Due to the complexity of the work and the techniques involved, 4-6 months commitment is typical , while larger pieces can take as long as a year or more.
