“My approach to painting is very much like that of an illustrator, with smooth brush strokes and very little physical texture. I create narrative pieces inspired by the extraordinarily ordinary, juxtaposing the rough with the refined. My paintings imagine a world where clumsy robots live among dysfunctional crows and alcoholic bunnies. In this fictionalized reality, these oddball characters serve as stand-ins for actual humans. This is all done to say something about the human condition while poking fun at the real world.”
