"My work explores the connection between the artist and the model, the energy exchanged between the two. It's about emotional response, tactile, visceral, abstract, created with a limited color palette, leaving the brush strokes and drips raw and unrefined. It's as much a conversation as a picture, a snapshot of emotion, a thread running between the observer and the observed. Connective Tissue."

Uraz, 16" x 24", Painted Tape on Masonite Assemblage

This is a smaller tape assem­blage made from por­traits of Mila, Samara and oil sketches from Hip­bone Stu­dio. Named for the rune Uraz, mean­ing strength and health. I see power in this piece, it’s cen­tered around one of the most inter­est­ing peo­ple I’ve every met, Mila Lupe, she’s got a power run­ning through her like none I’ve ever felt before. The same can be said for Samara but it’s a more quiet cur­rent like the grass growing.
