Being an artist has always been an important part of my identity. For as far back as I can remember I’ve always loved to create and have always felt more alive while creating. I have always been attracted to abstraction, and find that even when painting something more realistically; the abstractionist in me comes through. Color has also always played a significant role in my paintings; embracing color or limiting color intentionally are both themes throughout my work. Part of being in artist is sharing the way you see things; so I hope you enjoy the way that I see the world.
