I am not sure there is much about my work that feels local; in fact many people in my hometown are surprised to find out that I am local. I view my work as very universal. I incorporate imagery and inspiration form a wide range of sources that are from all over the world. I want my pieces to be intriguing and different, and to draw interest from people with many different backgrounds.
