“The aspects of things that are most important for us are hidden because of their simplicity and familiarity.” (Wittgenstein)

My paintings are observational paintings of simple ordinary objects that are so familiar that we might ignore them at first glance. A closer look at things in my immediate surroundings. A rock. A piece of tape. A scrap of paper. Objects that when painted life size can seem monumental, precious or intimate, rather than small.
