My work is directly influenced by my surroundings and my travel experiences. I’m especially drawn to the delicate shapes, textures, and colors of fruit; the mark of graffiti and tag art; and the lines created by cityscapes, mass transit and trains. For reference and inspiration, when creating work, I use photography, sketches, Xerox, and video.

My latest works are inspired by the North Carolina Port of Wilmington and surrounding areas. I was in awe when I first laid eyes on this vast collection of colorful shapes and structures, fenced in and protected. I was excited to get in and document this industrial landscape.
