I am interested in objects that have a past. Their story is often forgotten and their characteristics of being worn out, broken and old are
commonly seen as unattractive. I value nostalgia and believe that every antique has a fascinating story.
Preservation does not always equal restoration. To honor the stories of the past, I paint places/objects as they exist in the world today.
There is beauty in the undone, the abandon, and in the shadows of a greatness that once was.
