About
I am a mixed-media artist creating landscape-based works that explore our relationship to the natural world and the deeper sense of presence within it.
My work is rooted in observation, material, and atmosphere. Earth tones, stone forms, and subtle internal light recur throughout the pieces, often paired with a sense of scale that places the viewer in quiet relation to something larger and more enduring.
Each piece is made to be lived with over time. Not as decoration, but as an experience that shifts the feeling of a space and invites a more attentive way of seeing.
Background
After serving five years in the Marine Corps, I began my artistic career as a commercial airbrush artist in California. That period gave me technical control, but it was the transition into personal work that defined my direction.
I moved to New York to study classical drawing, spending thousands of hours working from the human figure and developing a disciplined foundation in form, light, and composition. That training continues to inform everything I make.
Alongside my fine art practice, I have studied concept design to deepen narrative and world-building within the work. This allows each piece to exist not only as a standalone object, but as part of a larger unfolding body of work.
Statement
My work explores the relationship between the physical world and the quiet sense of presence that exists within it.
Time spent in direct contact with the landscape plays a central role in the process. The work is less about representation and more about translating a felt experience of stillness, scale, and atmosphere into something physical.
I move between two and three dimensions, building pieces that function as both images and objects. Years of classical training inform the structure, while a more intuitive approach shapes the final form.
These works are intended to reveal themselves slowly. They invite a deeper awareness of space, and of how much of it we tend to overlook.
