I think of my work as contemporary western. Sometimes it is more western, with images of western towns and landscape. Other times it’s more contemporary, with mixed-media urban landscape and whimsical creatures.

My most recent group of paintings is the Balance Series. This is based on the idea that balance is so basic it’s easy not to notice, at least until it goes missing. With these paintings I’m having fun with the birds, and some of the choices we all get to make.
