2017: Leftovers: The Last Streetcar Sites

I spent 2017-8 working in the archives of the Baltimore Streetcar Museum, seeking out the remaining locations of various buildings and structures pertaining to the now obliterated streetcar transit system that connected Baltimore until 1964. These 41 watercolor collages chronicle the only locations that remained in the city as of 2018— some have since disappeared as well.

2019: Breezeblocks

I returned to Levittown, Puerto Rico in February of 2019 to investigate for myself the recovery of the midcentury houses after Hurricane Maria. The resulting impressions are captured in this series of watercolors I made upon my return home. Some of these paintings also have collage elements.

2023: Album Quilt Collages

Inspired by the designs of Baltimore Album quilts popular in 1840s this is a series of 12 watercolor collages.

2025-3: Alligator Pear Drawings

Made with vintage and contemporary magazine collage elements and handdrawn botanical backgrounds in Colored Pencil, Pen on Archival Paper.
