Biomorphic reality
(University of Wisconsin--Stout. Research Services, 2015-04)
The motivation for my work stems from my desire to create serenity and
beauty within the repetition, balance, rhythm, and attention to detail in my structures.
By mentally manipulating cellular form to challenge its ...
Unfixing agency
(University of Wisconsin--Stout. Research Services, 2015-04)
In my work, I strive to combine conceptual bricolage and drawing
by using different and sometimes unrelated ideas and systems that I possess
to create drawings. This often requires calling upon physical objects and
subjects ...
Northern Exposures
(University of Wisconsin--Stout. Research Services, 2015-04)
This body of work draws from real spaces, nature, and the process
of applying paint. This leads to me to consider spaces outside and inside,
natural phenomena, time, and movement.
Reconfiguration
(University of Wisconsin--Stout. Research Services, 2014-04)
With an initial concept and visual in mind, each finished work

Projections
(University of Wisconsin--Stout. Research Services, 2016-04)

is no engagement, if the trigger is not set off, one has no way of ...
Trespass
(University of Wisconsin--Stout. Office of Research and Sponsored Programs, 2017-04)
Drawing has the power to construct such an honest relationship
between artist and observer. In its traditional and most foundational sense,
drawing is an observational and communicative assembly of mark-making.
Drawing ...
Cutting edge sentiment
(University of Wisconsin--Stout. Research Services, 2014-04)
The nature of cultural changes over time, in a broad sense,
is where my work originates. My initial investigations have
stemmed from my experiences working in long-term memory
care and have generated ideas regarding ...
Discrete
(University of Wisconsin--Stout. Research Services, 2016-04)
A colleague once described my work as “sophisticated glitter.” The
idea that glitter, which is a cheap material and considered kitsch, may be
transformed into sophistication, has compelled me to create works of art ...
Skin deep
(University of Wisconsin--Stout. Research Services, 2014-04)
Through figurative narratives, my paintings illustrate
elements of the human experience. Specifically, my work brings
attention to the disconnect between human beings and their
physical and psychological existence. Using ...
