Artist Statement:

My art practice began as a way to acknowledge the memories and experiences of my childhood and young adulthood in Wales. As an immigrant to the United States my paintings have become a form of catharsis, a method of working through the emotions I have always had about leaving home. In that respect my work is often very personal. I am also inspired by the past: old family photos, antiques, historical buildings or settings, and anything that evokes a sense of nostalgia. I primarily work with water based media and like to add a lot of water to whatever medium I'm using. I enjoy the atmospheric effects that can be achieved, how the paint can be wiped away and how this might suggest the mistiness of memories and the past. I have recently begun working digitally which often begins with a physical painting or photograph. The image then goes through a process of transformation as I add and subtract elements until the image reaches a satisfactory aesthetic conclusion.
