I create paintings that move through vulnerability, grief, and the slow process of being found again. Not the initial moment of impact but what follows it.
The quiet weight. The disorientation. The parts that don’t resolve all at once.
This work comes from lived experience from loss, from broken trust, from carrying things that I didn’t have words for at the time.
For years, much of it stayed unspoken. Painting became a way to face it without needing to explain it.
These paintings are not answers. They don’t try to resolve what’s been felt. My work is for those who feel deeply and feel unseen. Who understand that some things don’t leave, but change over time.
Painting has been part of my life for over 40 years first influenced by my father, and later shaped through mentorship and years of continued work.
Over time, the focus has shifted from learning how to paint, to understanding my why.
Each piece is part of my ongoing journey and question of where I fit in this world. Sometimes it doesn’t move in a straight line, but continues forward nonetheless.
