"American Beauty is a collection of 16 oil paintings inspired by the highs and lows of Lindsay Lohan, Amanda Bynes, and Britney Spears’ lives in public over the last 10 years. When I first started conceptualizing the idea behind the collection, my goal was to have each piece be sort of a snapshot of my adult life thus far, good and bad. It evolved into American Beauty when I fused that with these well-known women who have achieved a unique degree of fame in that their lives are our entertainment and they themselves are the artwork we are viewing. I have tended to identify with their public struggles over the years and painted scenes that I personally relate to. From there the collection developed a narrative of it’s own and the focus now is more on the women in the paintings and less specifically me, but my bones are in every piece."
