Articles

This collection of articles explores many of the ideas, influences, and experiences that continue to shape my work. Topics range from contemporary abstract art, collecting, and creative process to the role of texture, scale, music, culture, and observation in the development of a visual language.

Some of these writings focus directly on painting, while others examine the broader experiences, influences, and questions that inform my practice. Whether you are a collector, fellow creative, or simply curious about contemporary abstraction, I hope these articles provide additional insight into both the work itself and the ideas that continue to drive it forward.
