I typically work in pen and ink but also oil paints.  I pull my subject matter from the Great Plains, the Rocky Mountains, underground subcultures, and humor. I enjoy exploring negative space in my work.  I also intent to empower the viewer to conclude their own meanings from my images. I don’t have a hidden agenda and if I did I wouldn’t tell anyone.
