Artist Statement

Hello there!

I am an interdisciplinary artist and my primary focus is oil painting in the style of contemporary realism. My work is intended to be contemplative and explore the various relationships between human + nature + scale + color. I am inspired by the grandeur of nature and interconnectedness between all living things. These ideals are conveyed through dynamic compositions with elements of nature and landscape, intertwining realism and vibrant color palettes. Over the last six months or so, my main body of work has been focused on mutualism and magnifying the reciprocal and beneficial relationships between organisms. The concept for these paintings stem from the core belief that all life is deserving. I am creating pieces that highlight the simple, delicate beauty and integral aspects of nature that are often passed by. I intend for my work to translate points of open mindedness and thoughtfulness for the things outside of ourselves. 

Thank you & enjoy!
