I investigate representations of the urban environment that reflect the passing of time and sounds. I use painting and printmaking to explore different avenues in depicting movement and energy, creating a dialogue between my mark-making and the anatomy of these dense cityscapes. Representational layers and abstract gestures are combined with my love for music. As I listen to the sounds of the city, I find that each view plays a different tune. Music serves as a profound influence on how I choose to apply media to the canvas. In particular, instrumentals aid me in organizing layers of observations as two-dimensional studies. I continually build a musical and visual composition by observing the city's movement and patterns.
