Born: 1970, Los Angeles. School: The
School of the Art Institute of Chicago. Reside: New Hampshire.
Artist Statement:
Painting loosely with wax, creates a textured, unpredictable line. I
work with it in large strokes suggesting just the shape of an object.
The cooled wax leaves its own impression on the canvas. I sew into these
wax layers and crevasses with thread, giving a torn and unraveling
effect to the piece. Essentially, it is deconstructive work and has a
lot to do with releasing attachments and finding memories.
