Give me a charcoal line and I will show you my heart’s story. Pair that line with paint and I will show you my life.

This is a delicate balance- this calling. I gingerly walk on a high, fine line. My faith in the alchemy of art guides each step. I am here for the mystery and the freedom. I am here because I know this is where I belong and it is through painting that I find myself and my community. This is my lineage. This is my family tree made of charcoal dust.
My paintings are in collections throughout the United States, United Kingdom, Europe, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. A selection of my prints were purchased by the American cable network HBO, and used in season three of their award-winning series, “True Detective.”
My paintings have been selected for several projects by PAPER+WHITE, an award-winning international interior design and art consultancy based in England with studios in London’s East End and Cambridgeshire.
I was born and raised in Fayetteville Arkansas, earned a BFA with honours in painting from the University of Oregon, and currently, live and work in Edinburgh, Scotland.
