Wisconsin-born,

cheese-eating, beer-drinking,

I’m a working-class artist.

 

I attended the Peck School of the Arts

at the University of Wisconsin,

Milwaukee, where I found painting to be

my medium  of choice,

primarily acrylic on wood.

 

I use found and/or recycled wood

as painting surfaces. Doors, drawers

and other construction remnants supplY

the setting to my stories and live on to inspire a few more of their own…  And to be honest, it’s an affordable way for me to keep making artwork that happens to prevent a few things

from being thrown away.

 

As an artist, my work focuses on narrative. My goal is to advance and legitimize concepts of visual storytelling by making it accessible to my audience, using imagery and themes inspired by the cartoons and popular culture that raised me.
