Welcome to my world of painterly layered images.

Artist's Statement on the Layered Image

           The layered image is not an attempt to record as a traditional photograph captures a moment in time, but to encourage viewers to look beyond the obvious, to interpret and to react to the image on multiple levels.  My work is a meditation, whether I am creating a photograph or a surreal painting.  I use my art as a visual form of communication, and I am most inspired by irony in life, finding sorrow in beauty and joy in tragedy.
