This painting was created in response to the energy and dissonance that exists in urban environments. The shapes are quirky, cartoonish, and at times architectural. They flirt with recognizable objects in an area between reality and imagination, causing viewers to derive an understanding of the work that is made interpretively rather than literally. This response is not linear or static, but instead creates an undertone like that of struggle, playfulness, or humor, which hopefully appeals to a viewer’s senses and evokes a subsequent feeling.
