When people ask me what I paint, I usually just say, “figures.” Some of my figures are imagined, some mythological; many are real people painted from life or memory. Even my still lives are humans. Humans interest me becasue they are complex and ridiculous, simple and brilliant, tragic and frightening.

Some people believe that painting the figure is passé, but as long as humans keep thinking up new ways to make old mistakes, there will be artists developing new ways to chronicle these triumphs and missteps.
