This series is an experiemnt in the interactions between paintings, and by extension, the interactions between people.
The portrait is arguably the oldest form of painting, but also the most static. I would like to create portraits that are dynamic, that are affected by each other and the environment in which they hang. The diamond-shaped picture plane implies a state of unrest that is so underscored by their proximity to one another that they almost appear to lean on and support each other, creating a structure which is at once stable and completely chaotic.

The theme that underlies my body of work this semester has to do with issues of control (and lack there-of).
These 'issues' are addressed in the painting technique as well as the content of the work itself.
The paintings represent a moments in time and are not intended to make the viewer feel comfortable.
They are however intended to provoke thought and allow the viewer the authority to narrate based on life-experience.
In Romanticizing otherwise somber situations, I am playing on the idea of there being three sides to every story; her version, his version and THE TRUTH.
In the case of my paintings 'The Truth' is the image and the two versions (his/hers) would be that of the viewer and my own.
My main objective is to encourage viewer participation and create an opportunity for dialogue.

Recently my work as a painter has taken on a distinctively cinematic
quality. I have become interested in the role that painting plays
contemporarily in our world, which is so focused on media representations
and digital arts. A distinctive aspect that film or television has in
opposition to fine art, is the evolution of an idea through three separate
stages. In a movie or a television show, there is a writing, a directing and
an editing stage. During each of these stages the work goes through changes
and in a sense, takes on a new life. I have been experimenting with my
abilities as an artist to give my work, not only a cinematic quality through
the framing and composition of each piece, but also through a process of
incorporating distinct stages within my work. For this particular piece, I
wired a digital camera to my television and filmed a friend playing his
guitar. I then photographed the image on the screen using black and white,
Agfa Scala film. Finally, I projected the slide image onto a large canvas
and produced the painting. Each stage of this process really took on its own
interesting and unique life. The process is really a great deal of the art
work. Personally, I find that my most successful work comes from a
creatively unique process.

This semester my work is about a process - the process of overanalyzing: how we can take a word and manipulate its meaning utilizing the many definitions one word possesses.
And when one overanalyzes a situation, word, relationship, thing, person, the process can seem quite logical in one s mind.
When taken to the extreme, overanalyzing can become a jumbled mess of words, a complete loss of meaning, and a painful experience.
My definition of a single word grows with every panel, the physical pain in my hand grows with every letter cut out of the canvas, and, in the end, all clarity is lost due to overanalyzing.
