"Many of my pieces can be read as monuments...My works are reminders that act as spiritual and psychological stops; silence within a chaotic world. They are not the heroic memorials to which we are accustomed. Rather, they are poignant remembrances"

'[P]ainting is primarily a way of thinking, of seeking insight, of examining and understanding aspects of the world around me...I consider my work successful when it provokes thoughtful questioning of assumptions by making familiar territory strange and surprising"

"By addressing contemporary black cultural expression, I interrogate, race, gender, politics and hyper-consumerism, among other ideas. And it is my view that the everyday—subject matter from the vernacular landscape—provides ample material"

"...I create drawings and sculptures depicting an alternative reality, invented and inspired by the cycles of deconstruction and reconstruction produced by hurricanes...In referencing the hurricane's continual transformation of landscapes and mentalities, I hope to provoke certain questions: How do we "map" memories? How is a visual crisis represented? How are boundaries determined?"

"My work begins with the Southern-California landscape. The landscape then morphs into a dream, into an essence or impression. How do we capture and articulate an essence?...I am interested in how incomplete our memories can be and how we fill in the blanks"

"The viewing of a work of art should be a mental exercise for us- in some way a personal journey of reflection...I employ a metaphorical language to communicate personal experiences, struggles, desires, and dreams. I place people, animals and objects into folkloric, fable-ish compositions that are abstract and obsessive"

"Current work explores: structure in geologic, national, and personal construction, lines, as they exist (fault lines) and as they are imagined (national borders), and feathers (an inaccurate, but functional Pan-Indian symbol) act as a building material for objects, evidencing both their inherent strength and fragility"
