About Me

I was a child of the seventies. A time of confusion. A decade of mixed messages. The Vietnam War was finally being seen for the sham it was. The Hippy Revolution had been squashed by conservative, religious backed entites and women were finally braking through centuries of oppression. The Good, the Bad and the Ugly. I blend drawing and painting using both graphic clarity and abstract, random mark making to reiterate the points of opposition, collision and division on thoughts of economics, religion and politics. Using historical/hersorical references against contemporary existance I hope to provoke the pervading acceptance of utter ineffectuality. Life is a circle. Everything we do or accept has an effect on somebody or something, somewhere.

My Interests

The personal/universal truth is everywhere; it runs through us, around us and is in us. It is the relationship between male and female, humans and animals, the environment and architecture. We cannot escape it , it is our very existence. It is a scientific fact that we are genetically connected, the progeny and care takers of the planet and when we break down these connections through religion, politics and business we also break down the individual and his/her connection to the universe. So how can any real thruth be personal, in that it deeply affects the existance of the individual, without being universal? Are we not just individual pieces of a universal whole? How could I or anyone else ignore that our individual existence and choices have universal repercussions?

Just a thought

If all over the world women had the right to make decisions, returned to them, what could happen? No women with a choice would have a child she could not even offer survival. No women with a ch...

Puppet

Puppet on a string, such a woeful time that we live in. Slapped around and turned about. What to do? How to make out? We struggle up, while slipping back. Those closest bare our worst attacks. What a...
