Artist Statement
“My work is found and formed at the intersection of what I see and how I feel.”

Visually and viscerally I explore the expression of two worlds at once, my inner world and the natural world around me, what I see and how I feel, as well as where I am and where I want to be. The list goes on, truth be told, I believe it never ends.

Negative space plays an important part of my work, mimicking the delicate dance between what is spoken and what is held back. I have a particular interest in memory, and how these images shape the stories of our lives. Thanks to the gift of synesthesia, my own senses continue to inform how to bring my inner world into outer form. This leads me to ask myself certain questions again and again. How can I paint the pictures I see and feel so vividly in my mind? How can I alchemize the creative instinct into something that feels good to keep in my home? How can I tell a story in one frame? My hope is that every piece answers those questions with simplicity, beauty, and a sense of calm as I bring my inner world outside.
