Medium: Digital print; Procreate (with collage elements); matted and framed under glass.. Size: 25inX30in. My digital artwork is a blend I call “expressive realism,” in which I portray the lives and key moments of outcasts, misfits, or marginalized individuals in America. I instill a melodramatic edge to my compositions as a way of enticing the viewer, much like cinema or theater. The viewer is encouraged to assume the role of a voyeur. Melancholy, pathos, or regret may befall my ‘women on the verge,’ vintage hunks, sorceresses, or members of the LGBTQ community, yet I aim to reveal humor, hope, or the ‘inner light’ of the soul.
