I love to study and to create paintings and drawings that summon catharsis and healing.
My paintings and abstract dry media center vivid color, expressive texture, and primal human concepts. In short, I phrase dark themes with an optimistic silver lining. My work touches on stresses and the pleasures of life. I am a optimist and a firebrand: a living bingo card! I use an identity framework: As a mixed Black, white and Jewish gay man, I embrace my identities. I contrast childhood joy and pain with my own spiritual awakening. My work exalts conquering fear, earnest devotion, and capturing joy. It’s a scary, ongoing exploration of discipline.
As a Jew of Color, I strive to demystify and exhibit a love of life, of ancestry, and making a life worth living.
