Statement
My work is driven by an interest in how color and texture shape emotional experience. I’m drawn to surfaces that show evidence of time and process, allowing layers to build and interact organically. Travel and lived experience influence my approach, not as literal references, but as atmospheres that inform the way I work. I see each painting as a space where structure and intuition meet.
