I am self-taught. Largely, working on canvas and paper, I apply various materials and techniques for added interest and texture, usually incorporating collage into my pieces.
I am interested in a range of styles and subjects, but am principally inspired by color and form. I am fascinated by illuminated manuscripts of the Middle Ages and often use gold/silver leaf to add a sense of luminosity to my images.
I create textured paintings that explore nature’s quiet beauty and human moments through vibrant colors and layered forms. My work blends warmth with calm, inviting reflection and bringing subtle energy to any space.
Ultimately, my works are invitations to pause. They reflect acceptance of everyday beauty, asking the viewer to look a little longer and find stillness and a touch of magic in ordinary things.
