Artist Statement I am a painter of the world – it fascinates me.

I paint traditionally realistic portraits, figures, landscapes and still lifes (i.e. anything that stays still long enough for me to capture it).

I recently studied art on a partial scholarship for 6 months in France with renowned teachers, Timothy Stotz and N. Michelle Tully at their school, Studio Escalier. Before that, I was almost entirely self-taught.

In my head, there is a world that is spacious, calm, grounding.

It’s a world where your spirit runs free and kisses the wind, where you dance in the rain, and fling your arms wide and the world can hear your cry, “I am alive and I am here!”

It is a world where your wounds are soothed and healed, where your tears are cradled and your dreams are supported. It is a place where the simple divinity of an orange is just as magnificent as the glory of crashing waves.

It is a world where there is space for your soul.

That’s the world that I paint.
