These recent paintings are a reflection of my deeply-set tendency toward perfectionism. You can see it in the strict application of paint, the tightness of the geometry, and the frenetic effect created by so many concentric lines. The work speaks abstractly to issues of mental health and codependent behavior. It also blends my graphic design sensibilities with the very modern need to unplug from technology and connect to something physical.

A hard look at myself

For as long as I can remember, I’ve buried uncomfortable feelings and mirrored other people’s emotions because it was easier than connecting with my own. This self portrait came at such an appropriate time. Painting it required me to scrutinize myself—to literally and figuratively get up in my face. The process helped me begin to accept uncomfortable emotions. As I look harder, more of my truth comes into focus.
