Hello

I’m a self-taught contemporary abstract artist creating vibrant mixed media paintings and altered cyanotypes—a unique camera-less photographic process. Rooted in collaboration with nature, my work radiates energy, fluid motion, and luminous depth. 

​

Texture and Flow:

​

I’m drawn to quiet and serenity—it’s within that stillness that I give each artwork the thoughtful attention it deserves. 

​

I’m inspired by the flow of pigment, the richness of layered textures, and the meditative power of brushstrokes. My influences are many, but lately they include Asian water-ink traditions and the Japanese art of kintsugi, which celebrates the beauty within broken, imperfect and organic forms. You’ll often find delicate gold leaf or hand-drawn gold lines in my work—a quiet nod to this philosophy. 

Lately, I’ve been exploring the interactions of paint on raw canvas and experimenting with abstract expressionist techniques like Helen Frankenthaler's soak stain method. I strive for the disciplined elegance of simplicity in my compositions, and find that achieving it is a slow, immersive process that deepens my connection to each piece.

​

In my more textured work, I also incorporate collage elements from my travels throughout the world—cultural ephemera that connect the artwork to the world outside its frame.

​

My altered cyanotypes are a collaboration with nature: sunlight-activated photographic prints created from native plants and marine life. I then enhance them with chemistry drawn from both my studio and the sea. Each piece is entirely unique—shaped by the sun’s rays and the natural chemistry of organic components—resulting in abstract works of art even I can’t fully predict.

​

Recurring themes in my work—mist, glow, translucence, and layered light—echo my love for the ocean and the quiet awe it inspires.

​

I'm so glad you are here and hope that you love experiencing my art as much as I love creating it!
