About my work

My paintings are portals to see the world within ourselves. They highlight the animacy of the non-human beings that we share the earth with, and the friction of coexisting on our human-dominated planet. In my work, the presence of humans is etched into the land, and ecological relationships are often personified. I am a true romantic at heart- painting is my love letter to my home, and my bouquet of flowers to the flowers themselves.

Both naturalistic and intentionally staged, I paint single moments of gentleness, decision, contemplation, or reckoning which echo our current moment of an uncertain future. All dressed in a hazy light, could it be the warm glow of hope, or the harbinger of a storm?
