“My studio is located in a second story spare bedroom of our suburban Atlanta home. From that window, I look for beauty in the small, strange everyday moments of contradictions. The neighbor remodeling his bathroom and putting his old tub in the trash. A flooded playhouse in my backyard. The flipped over traffic cones the power company puts out. These don’t always get interpreted in my work as they happen, but they might get combined with other ideas and images I see when sitting in the carpool line at school, going for a walk with my daughters, or watching them dive into the cold water at swim practice.”
