Artist Statement

The world is a visual playground to those who marvel at the mundane. I’m passionate about the human experience and the interplay between people and their environments, both natural and intentionally designed. Inspired by the Impressionists, I use bright daubs of acrylic or oil paint to depict candid snapshots that represent stories of small, precious moments that make up everyday life–in technicolor. I create compositions that invite the viewers eyes to dance across a scene, encouraging a pause that modern life often neglects.
