@my is a lover of birds, but sometimes they can get on her dark side.

Nostalgia is everyone’s favorite. My urban landscape paintings are a reflection of my most nostalgic dreams. They have a feeling like old memories or forgotten places. I like imagery that tells part of a story. An unfinished story is something you can become obsessed with.

Chuck E Bloom

My ultimate goal is walk right into one of my canvases and never return, but the door opens and the door closes in the blink of an eye. the barriers are endless and the map I followed getting here is torn and unreadable. Perhaps I’ve pretended to know where I was all along just to feel more comfortable, but it doesn’t make it any less real.
