Everything has beauty, but not everyone sees it” ~Confucius

There is beauty in everything, even in the ugliness that life might bring. My artwork is a result of my own healing journey, focusing on elements that instill joy or remind me of it. This is achieved by use of color, texture, and material manipulated to bring forward lost experiences and memories. Reminiscent of my days as a curious child, scientific study, and pastimes meandering through the woods, my work draws from these moments and brings them into the physical world.

“I am awestruck by the beauty of the natural world, both in the seen and unseen (and sometimes forgotten). I try my best to capture those little wonders in my work.”
