The works in Primavera are figurative paintings with themes of isolation, physical expression and sexuality. Most are non-referenced and some are from poses created with physical models. Some are abstract with representational aspects of subjects specifically to define a deep psychological connection with the pose and sense of the inner most private movements of a human being.

Being in that moment, our perceptions are altered by the connection with their being. The paintings are a visual representation of an extremely personal and private state with the purpose of reminding the viewer of meaningful joy of expressive human movement and the associated phycological state.

Within the last few years, I rediscovered the process of making art. I strived to reinvent myself working within my previous area of experience. With the belief that artistic evolution is paramount I shifted my studies from the process used in my first series and began to form creative relationships with performance artists from all over the world. This changed my focus toward adapting the principals of the material to further the development of my own work. From here, I pursued a different motif within my work.

Primavera is springtime, sometimes dark, sometimes cold but always with the promise of the sun. I believe that an artist should endeavor to describe by whatever stylistic means necessary even when it is outside their level of understanding and never within the confines of a specific notion or moment.

Choosing different spatial arrangements in the compositions allowed me to manipulate the abstract elements of light with color to representational and nonrepresentational aspects of each piece. With the intention of moving the viewer into the pattern of the chosen pose. With the input from the subjects, studio photography and drawings to make the material and form all the paintings into a coherent theme and statement. These works are all made with oil paint for the visceral skin, and light quality adapted from many of my influences. Coming to a figure and expression style from abstract perspective, I hope gives new and unfamiliar visual treatment to the subject matter.
