I am an artist driven by a deep fascination with the moments of human emotion that connect us all. Because I thrive on variety and technical challenges, my work ranges from landscapes to modern still lifes to figurative work. No matter my subject, my goal is always to capture those ubiquitous feelings—joy, longing, solitude, hope—that resonate across boundaries and time.

My landscapes are invitations to step into a memory or a mood, capturing the beauty of our shared home and the adventure we encounter heading into the wild of it. They aim to preserve the powerful emotions felt while exploring the world, whether sparked by breathtaking scenery or shared experiences. Each piece is a tribute to the awe and connection I find in the wild, conveying something deeper and more lasting than a camera ever could – not just its beauty, but the emotional response it stirs.

In my modern still lifes, I find whimsy in the everyday. I arrange familiar objects in unexpected ways, using light, color, and composition to reveal the stories and emotions hidden in the ordinary. Whether they be a vibrant exploration of the commercialization of childhood or a meticulously painted bad dad joke, these works are representations on presence, nostalgia, and the subtle drama of daily life. 

Portraiture, for me, is about more than likeness. I seek to capture the inner world of my subjects—their vulnerability, strength, and complexity. Every brushstroke is an attempt to honor the unique humanity of the person before me, while also reflecting something universal that viewers can see in themselves.

Through all my work, I hope to create art that feels both personal and shared. My paintings are an exploration of what it means to feel, to remember, and to connect. I invite you to find your own story within them.
