Narrative paintings illustrating elements of American society's psychic decline with familiar and yet uncanny scenarios that can be alternately grotesque, comedic, and horrifying.
The juxtaposition of commonplace and occasionally bleak landscapes with vividly rendered images inspired by biker parties, illustrated religious tracts, counter-cultural rituals, and celebratory scenes from everyday life invites the comparison of the viewer's reality with that of a disturbing fictional world.
