Oil Paint

14'' by 11''

I find great beauty in darkness — that which frightens us can just as easily inspire. It drives me to create and more often than not I find myself enamored by that which would unsettle most. When I paint, I begin by striving for realism until the artwork takes on a life of its own.

After years of working with acrylics, I am making a transition to oils that feels natural. It comes not without its challenges, but draws me in despite the peril. This piece marks that ritual, the artist’s right of passage, unfamiliar and beautiful, alluring and terrifying.
