Statement

My work is an exploration of intimacy and human connection. Grounded in realism yet liberated by a loose and expressive technique, my paintings invite viewers into a world where reality meets the boundless possibilities of an artist’s creation. I navigate the canvas with a playful spirit, embracing the whimsy and spontaneity inherent in each mark made. Through representational imagery, I aim to capture the essence of life in small, warm moments. 


In my paintings I examine both the natural lure of our day to day world and the power and manipulation of paint itself. I gravitate toward themes of observation and reflection, often using the motif of windows to build worlds and separate spaces. My paintings offer glimpses into familiar scenes that are transformed by my experimentation with color and mark-making
