My paintings are informed by the people and places around me, but I try to include the viewer in them as much as possible. The work is all based on snapshots of subjects that are familiar and personal to me. I obscure the image in some way to give the viewer room to participate in the action and narrative of the paintings.
Because details from everyday life are made indefinite by cropping, the viewer is free to fill in the blanks with details from his or her own life. Combining personal subject matter while including the viewer allows for an exploration of the people and places that help shape us all.
