This painting is an inspiration drawn from the love of food, cooking and entertaining. I often think of stories while I create a scene, a kind of dialogue between my subjects. In this scene there is definitely some kind of chaos in the kitchen where the plates and glasses seem to be breaking. This is also a reference to motion as the subjects are in flux. I usually try not to have a focal point in my paintings so that the viewer can be engaged throughout the composition. I find it more interesting to explore new shapes and colors each time the painting is viewed. There is a lot of different textures as I also have incorporated various material such as wood, paper and leather to give the feel of a dining room. I hope this painting to be a great conversation starter in any gathering. Sides of the canvas is finished with paint and painting can be hung as is.

I work predominantly in mix-media. I work in layers to produce rich textural surfaces and build up intensity. One mark will lead to another, which will then lead to a different mark or texture on another part of the canvas or paper until the work is resolved. Nothing is planned unconditionally. I may start with one painting and end with another. While working, I envision narratives: a type of visual dialog between the forms and textures on my working surface. I am inspired by nature and my surroundings and often begin with the representational, but my work frequently leaves behind the traditional notion of figurative painting and moves into the contemporary through the process of building up layer upon layer of paint and texture. Representational forms become paired down - almost abstracted. In all of this - a strong sense of symbolism remains in my work. I paint a lot of trees and as an example, the paintings with grouping of trees painted in a muted palette are in a quiet ballet - a dance that echoes the dance between individuals. The focus on the rich texture of the trunks of trees (not leaves, branches or roots) further strengthens the sense that the trees are also figures. The application of found tree bark to the layers of paint creates another underlying tension in the work, as the textures become an intrinsic part of the painting. My paintings are objects, which also carry symbolic weight. They hold a dialog between the past and the present. I try to stay away from repetition and frequently like to change either my subject matter or even methodology. I consider this as a challenge that will strengthen my work and make me a better artist. I think that every artist has their own artistic imprint and whatever they do and however they portray it, the beauty and exclusivity of their work comes through in the manner they depict it.
