This painting is from my current series of work- Fun House.  The concept is a mash-up of that classic amusement park attraction with more traditional  residential architecture.  The blurred lines lead to many spin offs about how we relate to the world.  This piece is a self-portrait depicting the sometimes overwhelming experience of sensory overload.

Groundspace Project is pleased to announce Groundswell, an exhibition curated by Mat Gleason. Groundswell is Groundspace Project’s first juried show and we are pleased to say it was a resounding success, with a tremendous response of wonderfully qualified entries.
