This is a collection from 2016-2022 when I was exploring fictional billboards with disjointed, fractured typography. The billboard structure acted as a container for my message, but it was often unreadable.

A collection of work from 2012-2015, when I first became focused on the billboard as a subject of painting. I was working in advertising, designing actual billboards. I recall spotting an old dilapidated structure on a rainy day road trip and taking dozens of photographs. Over the years I became obsessed the shape- a large canvas on legs out in the wild begging for the public eye, the ladders that hint at human caretaking (or neglect), the nature that often enveloped them.
