The journey from the sublime to the absurd is populated by religious and profane characters, and rendered in an introspective, self-effacing style. He explains about his artmaking process...

I paint wild spaces with the desire to motivate others to respect, preserve, and appreciate our sacred lands. I see my paintings as thoughtful...

“One of the most crucial human qualities, I believe, is empathy. Given empathy, brutality becomes impossible. Empathy is at the heart of our humanity, and in fact is the heart of our humanity, for it reduces the barriers of race, religion, and creed to items of mild interest, while unlocking our true, inherent human dignity.” The act of encapsulating empathy in some medium, be it dance or music, painting or sculpture, simple stories or more complex forms, is my definition of art.
