Intention. Line and color must be struck with intention. Not necessarily knowing the outcome, but working with deliberate intention towards a sense of something, a feeling, an idea, a sense of purpose.

In my deliberation I work to provoke thought, with out being commanding of a singular response. Painting everyday objects, things that we live with and don't give much thought to, I invite the viewer to rest on- or meditate on the simplicity of the present. Like a repose, a moment to be quiet and find contentment.
