Paintings exploring place, presence, and color.

My paintings are about moments of presence. I explore this idea in several ways; through places traveled, light through leaves, and the expressive gesture of the human figure. Each work begins with observation and develops with color and intuition.

Meet the Artist

I’m inspired by color, emotion, and the natural world. I create paintings of figures, landscapes, and botanicals that I hope bring balance and beauty into the spaces in which they exist.
