Formally work focuses on the relationship between realism and abstraction attempting to integrate these visual languages while allowing them to remain distinct. The figures within these spaces embody different roles, including that of transient, protector, destroyer, or remain ambiguous.

I draw upon mythology, folklore, theology, historical events, literature, and comic books for inspiration in my work. My most recent body of work is inspired by r
