A body of work celebrating endings flowing into new beginnings. new beginnings,  these works  are Inspired by lengthening hours of daylight,  lavish color, and new growth bursting forth. Characterized by their dynamic essence with expansive paint , I build texture, layer, and push color to create an effect both generous and unexpected.  Each work is a visual allegory of the new life we feel as times of barrenness lift within our own lives. And an invitation for you to meditate in the expressive quality of the rich surface.

This composition of seeing a horizontal line connect edge to edge is so innately powerful, we feel we're standing and looking at the field before us as location. I stand in the same place as you'll be standing. Looking and asking "where is this taking me?" Inspiration for these paintings comes from someplace boundary-less and deep within. 

This body of work, inspired by the Greek term Poikilia, seeks unity and harmony amid variations of surface, color, and layered assemblage. Historically associated with Byzantine design and medieval iconography illuminated by divine light, Poikilia also suggests a fluid, transformative presence. These currents take visual form through the interplay of gold composite metal leaf, synthetic Yupo paper, and polymer-based paints and mediums.

By weaving echoes of the past with materials of the present, the work seeks to move beyond time, becoming a meditation on the Divine and the contemporary existing in seamless union.My intention is to shape paintings that reflect this oneness, allowing beauty to arise through sensuousness and mystery within a shared field of light.

Allowing explores the space between intention and surrender as I invite the materiality of paint and surface to interact. The palette is limited, often to a single color, and surfaces range from smooth, non-absorbent grounds to highly absorbent, unprimed canvas. 

Breath, gravity, and air guide the fluid paint as it flows - gathering, pooling, staining - across each surface in unpredictable ways. The process is intuitive and meditative, requiring sustained attention while the paint moves as it may and the surface receives as it will. I welcome the unexpected and the unimagined as they come alive within the work.

Painting becomes an act of allowing—where intention meets surrender and the work unfolds through an openness to what paint and surface become together.
