Artist’s Thoughts:  I have an energetic approach to interpreting various aspects of life. I manipulate and re-imagine ideas with mix media materials, using paper, collage, paint and wood to create distinctive bodies of work. The majority of my artwork is created on a handcrafted wood canvas which allows me to construct different shapes and sizes. My focus is to use art to address history, heroes, music, architecture, still life and ethnicity especially through abstracted portraiture. So ultimately, I am developing into a visual interpreter of life and creator of images, showing how all aspects of the material world can be re-imagined and reformatted to express ways of thinking and living that embrace all of humanity. I choose the American bulldog because of its muscular frame and the fact my last dog was an American Bulldog and she got out of the yard and I never seen her again so i decided to use her as my muse.
