    I look deep into the evolution of city life. I am inspired by the  energy created by the masses of people and how weaved together we  form a changing backdrop for city living. I am also inspired by the  shapes I see which are sharp, curved, bold, delicate and combine  into  an infinite number of both simple and complex configurations.  When I paint I start with a blank canvas and let each shape evolve  out of the beginning point. The process is a stream of consciousness  that is inspired by urban aesthetics.

    This process has evolved into a symbolism that I continue to uncover.  I recognized the distinction between anthropomorphic shapes and those  that have a manufactured quality. I fuse these two classes of shapes  in my painting as symbolism of what happens daily in the urban  environment.
