Certainly, some architectural forms are favored over others, a hierarchy exists for preserving and restoring styles of architecture based on historical or cultural significance. I am interested in the contrast between old and new structures. It is a curious fate for the life of a building. Some go through many visual iterations and renovations while others will not stand the test of time.

I want viewers to make connections between the colors, lines, textures, and forms in my artwork and those found in their interactions with the constructed environment.

Certain architectural forms find their way into my work. My paintings focus on the built landscape from my observable surroundings. I have experimented with abstracting forms and structures lifted from their original context. The paintings quote building facades, they remove the compositions from the more traditional rectangle and instead are shaped pieces to reflect various architectonic forms. I want the works to take on an object-oriented feel. Each composition is meant to represent the beauty implicit in everyday surfaces and structures in various levels of decay and renewal.
