Accidental Encounters

Fascinated by the idea of creating still lifes that are “not so still,” I paint objects flying, floating, and falling, realistic objects that defy reality and gravity.

Light effects, distortions, and repetition in reflections allow me to create worlds within worlds. Mirrored surfaces with their curved distortions invite us to enter into a world that is strange yet familiar.

Toys represent joy and abandon, creating an “accidental encounter” between childhood and maturity.
