I deal with vulnerability. It is how I see myself and the world. Through my subject matter, the human form, I am constantly trying to understand the meaning behind my emotions and the environment we live in.

Most of my work is done on paper with mixed media that includes charcoal, conte, ink, acrylic, and oil stick. The immediacy of my material allows me to capture the emotions that are prevalent at the time. As I pace in front of my wall with a predetermined size of paper, struggling with the next decision and watching it evolve, I realize my reasons for creating. How else can I conjure up such emotions as sorrow, strength, brutality and weakness?

I cannot know the whole world. I can only try to document what I see as truth
