Artist Statement
Just as art mirrors life and is never static, my creative process continues to evolve through curiosity, experimentation, and an openness to new ideas and perspectives. I’m drawn to the dance of shapes, the point where light meets shadow, the texture of a surface, and how color sparks joy and reflects mood.
I follow an instinctive, meditative, and sometimes counterproductive path, adding and removing layers of paint and paper to build texture and depth. Fusing a variety of media with both deliberation and liberation is the way I enable the truest image to reveal itself like a story captured on canvas.
People see different things in my paintings and I like that certain shapes, lines, or colors can trigger an emotion, a memory, or connect us in the moment. I believe this is the point of art, and fundamental to what makes us human. Art speaks. We simply need to take the time to listen and allow ourselves to be moved.
