My fascination with the industrial and utilitarian stems from
an appreciation of objects that have moved our country into this
contemporary age. Importance is around us, often met in the most seemingly
mundane and discounted places. These paintings are based on a remembrance
or a concept the subject evokes, be it a person, place or object. Often
specific details from the experience are enhanced or erased. There is a
hierarchy to history either by time or want. I interpret memory and render a
history. Throughout the process of the work, a multitude of oil, oil
enamels and drawing tools are used. The work has multiple of layers, as does
the subject. When physically in the process of the work, I often rub, sand,
scrape, etch, and razor the painted surface to expose the layers. In doing
this, the actual record of the painting is revealed.

Surface of Time
~ An Artiist's Statement ~
I have been dealing with surface issues and concepts of time and space
in this latest work. At the same time maintaining a strong link to my
industrial identity to attempt work that exhibits the relationship
between the natural and man made. To this work, there is more of an
element of my stream of consciousness where I filter even more of my
everyday into each painting. The contrast that results extends a
dynamic that I hope reaches my audience on both a personal &
historical level.
