Often described as unworldly and godlike, I see the birds I create as kin to angels. Rather than mimicking nature, my palette and meticulous approach give the paintings a medieval aura while their stature is reminiscent of ancient Egyptian sculpture. Provocative, observant, they are archetypal embodiments of The Divine and exist in the borderland between mystery and fantasy in their innate if elusive narrative.

Early into CoVid19, I was invited to participate in a playing card deck project through the Provincetown Commons and collage made sense. Then I got involved in various collage challenges on Instagram as the protests over the death of George Floyd began. Not all of these collages are a result of those challenges, but most of them include birds or things with wings. I also did a series of shadowboxes, some of which include images from my paintings. And while the collages are different from the bird portraits, there is a cohesiveness in the face of isolation and melancholy; it all ties together.
