Its been a bit since my last update, not much has changed, still producing works, selling a few here and there.

I have started to work with glass and spray paint, as well as starting to pair my poems with paintings. I'm looking to publish a book of poems and paintings within the next few months, I'll put up some pages when I get them together.

What is an image? Is it a visual representation of an idea, a written description conjured in the dark recesses of ones mind?

I am exploring the creation of an image by pairing visual and written elements.

As a painter the use of painter-linear elements is fundamental to my work; I believe in the process of applying paint to canvas to create a visual narrative based on reality but not grounded in it. The unifying element of my paintings is the use of spray-paint. I use spray-paint because of the juxtaposition in creating organic elements through an inorganic means. I also wish to develop the political nature of my work by incorporating the social constructs surrounding spray-paint as a commentary on our current environmental policies

As a creative writer I rely on text to create a narrative. I use word, rhythm, meter, and other poetic devices to develop my voice. My poetry explores the political nature of individualism vs. societal constructs, as well as the destruction of nature.
