Life inspires what I depict. The wood surface is where I express my deepest emotions, thought and experiences. My works explore race, religion, ideas of traditional love and politics. My point of view is revealed by the free-hand of decorating on wood with burn marks resulting from controlled application of fire flame or heated gun directly on wood burning to create textures to define my subject and emotionally connect with my audience. I hope that when people see my works, they get to witness something beautiful whilst experiencing healing and respite from all that is negative in the world.
