"In my paintings I explore themes from urban environments.  Most of this imagery has a personal connection for me.  I was a sign artist for many years and signage can sometimes figure prominently in my work, as can clothing influenced by my tailor grandmother who was a creative force in my life.  My interest in projected self-image shows up in my depictions of shop windows, storefronts, clothing and automobiles.  Much of my technique is informed by my former occupation as a trompe l’oeil painter and sign artist."
