​Artist Statement​

 

I create art to make sense of what’s beautiful, broken, and possible in this world. My work is rooted in the belief that awe and wonder are not luxuries, they’re medicine, and in times of chaos, they’re a form of resistance. I follow a deeply intuitive process, beginning not with an image, but with listening. Each brushstroke becomes a conversation with the unknown, a way of reaching into the unseen and pulling something back.

​

Through bold colors, layered textures, and mystical imagery, I build portals that invite reflection, healing, and transformation. Influenced by Marc Chagall, dream logic, and the quiet intelligence of the natural world, my paintings hold a tension between the sacred and the surreal, otherworldly yet familiar. These works are meant to stir the senses, spark curiosity, and remind us that beauty can disrupt despair.

​

In a time of overwhelm and systemic collapse, I paint not to turn away from the world, but to challenge it. My images hold space for grief and hope, for mystery and clarity, for the truth of what is and the promise of what could be: a more just, compassionate, and alive world.

​

My paintings aren’t meant to blend quietly into a room, they’re created to awaken something within you. They invite you into a slightly wilder, more vibrant version of reality, where imagination is a tool for resilience and a doorway into possibility.
