I am a painter, photographer, and mixed-media artist born and raised in Little Rock, Arkansas. Growing up gay in the heart of the bible belt caused me to question religious and social ideals from an early age. My work is based on biblical stories, traditional symbolism, Victorian-era photography, classical literature, social conflict, and individualism. I have pieces in the permanent collections of the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, the Kinsey Institute for Research in Sex, Gender, and Reproduction, and several private holdings.
