Every painting begins with a question.

My practice explores how curiosity, observation, and material exploration lead to discovery.

Working across painting, drawing, installation, and found materials, I investigate how attention transforms the way we see the world.  Whether painting from direct observation, creating intuitive abstractions, or working with reclaimed nautical charts and handmade materials, I approach the studio as a place of inquiry—where experimentation, movement, and close looking reveal unexpected connections.

I invite you to slow down, explore the work, and discover what emerges.

Welcome to my studio.

Listen to My Heart

The Birth of Venus

Oil and cold wax

A painting exploring movement, memory, and transformation through texture and layered abstraction. 

COILED ROPE

Hand-twisted Packing Paper Rope and Twine

Hand-twisted from reclaimed paper, this coiled rope reflects my ongoing exploration of how ordinary materials can be transformed through curiosity, repetition, and making.
