Biography

I was born in Vancouver B.C. Canada, on February 23, 1970. I presently reside in Port Coquitlam B.C.

I’m an intuitive abstract artist. I’ve created and forged my style through trial and error. I usually incorporate a grid pattern into my art. The grid pattern represents the matrix of our lives. The many twists, turns and the millions of decisions we make that shape our life experience. I also have discovered a paste I like to use that gives my art more depth and texture a 3D effect. I began painting late in life at the age of 48. I took a painting class with my wife Sylvia and was hooked. I caught the painting bug and haven’t stopped painting since. 

I was immediately drawn and influenced by abstract expressionism and the artists and imagery from that movement. My goal is to push the boundaries of abstraction, to create interesting sculptural images.

 I sometimes incorporate objects into my paintings like glass, mirrors, glitter and computer parts. Painting at times is like a meditation to me. Sometimes when I'm finished a painting, I wonder how did I do that? My art can be described as geometric art, non representational art ,sculptural painting, abstract expressionistic. I would describe my style as a multi-layer mixed media artist . I'm always looking at contemporary art and I get inspiration and ideas from artists I see online. I'm looking to incorporate light fixtures into my work in the future and have a pull towards sculpture. 

That’s why I love abstraction the possibilities are endless.
