My work consists of oil paintings and metalwork, two completely different disciplines demanding craftsmanship and understanding of materials. Both practices are rooted in the same desire: to honor the process as much as the product.

In painting I am captivated by the play of dark and light and the human form. A light-dark composition acts as a vessel for color.

In metalworking I am fascinated by the contrast of the material, process and product. With a lot of force, heat and noise the cold hard material is turned into something subtle and refined, like a flower.

In a world that is about efficiency I like to take my time to research the materials I work with extensively to make my work durable.
