​I create transformative art experiences that inspire joy, resilience, and connection. My work invites viewers into luminous, expressive worlds where color becomes emotion.
I paint what it feels like, not what it looks like.
"I paint landscapes because I love the feeling I get when I’m surrounded by nature and I’m fascinated by organic shapes. I’m inspired by the feel of the wind and how the movement it makes causes the light to dance in patterns of warm and cool. I am drawn to the night sky and the idea that looking at the light of stars is looking back in time. I use brushstroke marks to show the lines of energy I feel coming off the living shapes, spreading and combining throughout all aspects of nature."
