My process is both intuitive and evolving. As I work, my research continues to build, helping me understand why I’m making certain choices rather than simply following instinct. Through this, I’ve come to see that I’m not just painting nature, but constructing an experience of it, shaped by memory, material and transformation. I work across oil, acrylic and collage with monoprint and vintage papers, building each piece in layers that reflect both process and concept. Fragments of earlier stages are intentionally revealed or obscured, allowing traces of the past to remain present.

Ultimately, my work is about connection. While each painting begins with my own experiences, I create with the intention that once it leaves my hands, the story becomes yours, inviting interpretation, reflection and a personal sense of meaning and possibility. At its core, my work is guided by a simple hope: to leave the world a little more meaningful, connected and beautiful than I found it.
