Oh, hello!
Let’s dig in a bit of why I create what I do…
My art is about more than just expressing my vision; it's about connecting with you. I believe that art's true power lies in its ability to create a meaningful connection, making it truly impactful.
I explore abstract landscapes and typography, and I'm always on the lookout for new materials and techniques. There's nothing quite like walking into an art supply store and picking out a new material to experiment with. I'm currently exploring natural pigments and mixed media, and I love experimenting with different materials to see how they can impact my work.
Using various mediums allows me to explore how different materials interact and transform on the canvas. This experimentation helps keep my work fresh and dynamic, leading to new discoveries and creative growth.
My approach to creating art is intuitive. I let the materials and my emotions guide the process, resulting in pieces that reflect my thoughts and observations. This method helps me produce work that is both visually engaging and meaningful, and also keeps every time I’m in the studio fresh and exciting.
In addition to my art, I host the Art Life Plan podcast, where I discuss the intersection of art and life. The podcast covers a range of topics, including creative processes, challenges artists face, and practical advice for navigating the art world. It’s a resource for artists (all levels!) and art enthusiasts looking for inspiration and insight into balancing creativity with everyday life.
I aim to offer artwork that encourages viewers to notice and appreciate the details in their surroundings--to see your world with new eyes. I invite you to explore my work and see how it might resonate with you.
