I am interested in how perception shapes the way we understand images. My paintings depict animal packs and birds, chasing and being chased, as well as the processes of grazing and feeding. I include cut and torn photographs and found images, and embed them in sweeping layers of paint. I emphasize abstracted imagery in order to reveal multiple perspectives. My work focuses on the interconnection of predatory animals and their prey as a way to explore complex power systems. These relationships are part of a dynamic, mutually evolving system. Sometimes we cheer for the predator, sometimes the prey.
