My work is inspired by my interest in, and appreciation for, science and the respective fields of biology, cognitive science, and theoretical physics.  Such subjects both amaze and challenge my understanding of the world around me. As a result, I feel the impetus to try to create visual allegories, imagining, ‘What if? How might this thing or that concept look if it were to be made observable?’

I find that the immediate and direct process of drawing serves as a means by which I can meditate on such questions and explore the fundamental nature of things. I want my work to resonate with the viewer on a basic visceral level while simultaneously encouraging them to ponder a layer of reality that exists beyond the immediate senses. Perhaps, most importantly of all, I want my work to capture a sense of awe, reverence, and adoration for nature, and through that, hopefully, help foster both inquisitiveness and a subsequent sense of stewardship for the natural world.
