This piece was painted on a 1930's Encyclopedia Britannica World Atlas map

About the artist:

My paintings serve as a means of communicating issues of personal identity and of the complexities of human experience. While painting, an intimate interaction occurs between me, the painter, and emerging figure. I investigate and portray the internal, emotional landscape of my subjects. My work is a hybrid exploration of figure painting and abstraction. In the cases where the gesture or lines of a whole body are rendered, the head reminds the focal point of representation as implied by its scale or its level of detail.
While I use a variety of materials and processes in each project my methodology is consistent. They are linked by recurring formal concerns and through the subject matter. I look to the vocabulary of modern and contemporary art as inspiration.
I do not plan the atheistic outcome of my artwork. I am sensitive to the demands of the painting. I go where the painting wants to go. I know when a painting is done when the painting itself can hold a conversation on its own; the colors are contrastive and there is a balance between spontaneity and control.
I am deeply committed to lines and there properties. A single drawn line can express movement and gesture, and give direction and depth on a flat surface. I strive to convey these qualities in my drawings. I carry these disciplines into painting. Often times I incorporate lines into my paintings to add visual weight and to enhance the form. I often draw or paint many versions; I do this because I feel with every reinterpretation the work becomes stronger and the elements become purer.
