Artist Statement(s)

"Painting for me is about freedom. Every raw mark strips away layers of illusion clearing the path for something alive and authentic to emerge. Within the act of painting I experience the honesty and bittersweet beauty tucked into every crevice of existence."

"Nature is my temple and the home of my spirit where I find simultaneous solitude and knowledge of belonging. I am endlessly inspired by it's wild-to-the-bone beauty and the personal moments I share with it."

"I believe in love. True love. The kind of love that takes your breath away and breathes life into your soul all at the same time. It's real and I can prove it to you."
