Artist Statement ~

In my practice, I bring the ephemeral into real life. Like the way light moves, or the way a color feels in our body, the way our emotions and memories and sensations flow through and connect us. I capture this energy in my artwork in the form of applying color and mark-making that flows into big inviting circles, overlapping shapes, playful line-work, and dreamy pools of color. Creating this work gives me a tangible and spiritual way to not only express my own authentic self and creative voice and vision, but it creates the opportunity for others to tap into their inner emotions and sense of wonder in response.
