Artist's Statement
My artwork is based on personal experiences and inquiries living in New York City. These usually small experiences occur as I move through my busy day. I am constantly halted by something I see in my daily environment, such as the MTA employee picking a fallen cellphone from the tracks or patterned seats on a Queens bus. These experiences become the content of my paintings and sculptures. I create narrative works of art that explore the ordinary in my daily environment. I zero in on something ordinary and make the viewer stop and look at it. The people in my artwork represent working class New Yorkers – which I identify myself as too.
