About
My Art
My Process
My Process
My art is emotional and evokes self-reflection. I paint abstract works, expressionist works, and dreamy landscapes that feel organic, textural, and mysterious. Each piece has layers, depth, and movement, and is reflective of my energy in the moment.
My work reflects liminal spaces, or thresholds—transitional spaces between states of consciousness, phases in life, mindsets, or even physical places. They communicate growth or transformation, and the powerful emotions that can accompany it.
My paintings often have portals, or openings, as primary elements. Many works also incorporate properties of the Earth’s topography and nature. There is a sense of solitude, of looking from the inside out—or from the outside in.
I’m constantly exploring and discovering meanings in the themes that emerge in my art. I create with pigment sticks, traditional oil paints, acrylic, and alcohol ink.

My Process
I work intuitively, allowing the work to evolve as I paint. The work itself guides me as I create it.
Each piece is the result of a dialogue that develops between medium and painter. Sometimes, there are one or two others underneath that had to yield in order to become the finished work.
