Honest, authentic art connects and heals us as human beings. My expressive abstract paintings aim to spark your joy, a sense that you are happy to be alive. I appreciate abstract art for the conversation it invites between the painter and the art lover, giving the viewer the opportunity to bring his/her own beliefs, thoughts, feelings and meaning to the painting.
My paintings are inspired by the beauty of abstract forms, patterns and colors in nature, music, literature, and even medical imaging. I paint intuitively, building up and removing layers with curiosity, honoring the beauty of uncertainty. I especially enjoy painting papers then cutting, tearing, layering and collaging them to achieve energy, texture and depth.
From 2020-2023, my donated paintings raised over $5,000 for food charities across the U.S.
My work is held in private collections throughout the U.S.
