My approach to art making is like any other practice that requires time & dedication,… I am in the studio every day creating.

I work on several paintings at once,… which allows me to capitalize on my ideas and creative energy, moving from one painting to the next. Paintings "unfolds" rather are forced. The end result isn't planned, … instead, it finishes once the exploration and expression is complete. I follow my own lead, listen for clues, search for a feeling, a design, a visual anchored in experience.

My paintings are driven by the act of creating, exploring curiosities, chasing an idea, juxtaposing complexity and simplicity, honing intuition and intention, balancing design and intrigue. It is within this process, each unique piece emerges.
