Mapping Ontology
 
I’m interested in placing what I think into painting, by pulling in what triggers my ideas into a visual mapping. My work is a study of the world around me  (an ontological dive) and in the end creating a shared personal dialog.

I realize that reality is constructed in the mind of the observer. The people in the paintings are people I might not know…or a composite of people I have known. The paintings are a way of casting memories and a visual form of writing.
