— painting. portraiture. large-scale. —
I’m a real human artist painting large-scale acrylic works — handmaking them chaotically, fueled by vibrancy and fantasy.
My work invites you to linger. To look longer. To feel what surfaces when sacred geometry, vintage animation, and critical reflection collide.
Layer by layer, I draw the past into the present, blending memory and symbolism into a whimsical, witchy brew.
Beautiful
This is an action; discovering beauty means making space to dwell in a moment. I let it soak over me and celebrate that beauty. Focusing on beauty in my artwork reminds me that splendor does exist in this world.
Bold
Like a good musical, the paintings sing emotions on a louder level. Every painting proudly peacocks the colors of the rainbow, each one fairly represented, no color left behind. There is a childlike astonishment at what exists in our own backyard, collecting dynamic memories along the way.
Balanced
Busy, bold, and bright; there is always plenty for the eye to explore. But each painting must be grounded before it is complete. A soft space to land that is consistent, predictable, and familiar, is also necessary. Both elements share the canvas equitably.
Series
Dark Garden
Floral motifs bloom in rainbow-colored surroundings,
playing with the balance of chaos and coordination.
Series
Portraiture
A soul can be celebrated and honored though artist rendering.
I enjoy the process of turning a photograph into a unique art-piece.
