Impinge:
to make an impression; have an effect or impact (usually fol. by on or upon ): to impinge upon the imagination; social pressures that impinge upon one's daily life.

I am intrigued by the effects of a personal environment. As much as I don’t want to admit that my current work is seemingly autobiographical, I am challenged by the various connections between my life and work.

I use drawing and painting as a vehicle for these explorations. From intervals of disarray to obsessively tidy my compositions are a direct metaphor for my own experience with nesting. Like the Rubik’s cube I am enthralled by an indescribable method of organization and placement. I compulsively rearrange and modify each composition in effort to find a complex system of interrelated parts and colors that is overly harmonious as well as nondescript.
