Urban Dinos / Invisible Commerce
This body of work is directly a result of my experience with The Machine. By machine, I mean not only my every day experience as a software developer -struggling with the ‘brain’ of the computer- but also during my commute, on a mechanical machine (my bicycle), through Boston’s urban constructs and machines, or as I call them, Urban Dinos. There is something both dreadful and beautiful about how our lives are confined and expanded through machination. We would not be able to live nor behave as we do with our everyday conveniences afforded by The Machine.
In particular, the Port Authority in Southie is a hotbed of our daily activity, although many of us do not even notice it. I think about how those containers surf in across the great oceans, into our very own port, and, if we wanted, we could follow them along train tracks into the far horizons of the West. Here in Boston is a connectedness of culture and commerce that we rarely give pause to consider.

Springtime 2020
It was a rough time in Ptown during quarantine. Painted on paint stirrers both in solidarity with the first responder signs throughout the cape, but also fronting turmoil with a silent hidden painting underneath.

Seascapes / Cape Cod
As someone who is in front of the computer for most of the work week, I treasure the time _away_ from it. I absolutely relish the ability to make something tactile as well as to express beauty in a way that others can appreciate beyond cyberspace (of course, yes yes I know, you are seeing only the cyberspace version of these paintings, but what can you do: this medium has to be the message – until you come to my studio or one of my shows!).
