A note on my recent object/still life paintings:
As humans we collect objects for various reasons. Whether the reason is function, decoration, sentimentality or some combination, every object in our homes or on our person has an origin, a history, and a meaning. This isn’t to say everything is some sacred artifact but, the objects we surround ourselves with are testaments to our consciousness and our belief systems. Through the process of examining objects and representing them on the picture plane, I blur the lines of objective and subjective and invite the viewer to consider the spiritual aspect of our material world.
