About

ABOUT ME

I'm a fly angler and artist living in Minnesota.  Inspiration for my work comes from my time on the water, in the woods, and roaming fields.  I take the observations, experiences, and ideas gained back to my studio to be translated into images and objects.


Materially my work consists of various media for drawing and sculptural elements of wood, tarps, bungee cords and duct tape. The subject matter is fused with counter-culture aesthetics that have shaped me. 


The work acts as an expression of where my life collides with the raw elements of nature. I specifically avoid applying too much prescriptive meaning to the work, but give enough formality to the imagery to offer guideposts to more focused narratives and feelings; I'm more interested in generating questions and visceral reactions vs. providing conclusions.  My goal is to remind myself, and others, that nature and the our interactions within are simultaneously beautiful, violent, calm, tragic, and joyous all at once.  All emotions and physical states are present.
