Artist Statement

  Have you ever felt that life seems to pass us by so quickly that we barely remember how we got from point A to point B?   Through the years I've realized that the majority of us tend to go through life blindly performing our everyday tasks with no consideration to what is going on around us.  We have become a society obsessed with filling every second in the day and we have forgotten to take note of the simple things at hand.  In my paintings I hope to inspire the viewer to stop for a brief second and see the beauty in what normally would be considered mundane.  If we can just slow down and take in these little instances, we have the power to become more content in our daily life.  I want to instill that desire in the viewer and hope that they can pause for just a moment in time to revel in the beauty that normally would go unnoticed.
