Artist Statement

In my art, I often create unique worlds and atmospheres with the female figure as my subject. I reference narratives of human influence and mental spaces using movement and crafted environments. Finding inspiration in everything- texture and color are critical to my process and the evolution of my work.  Leaving elements of my pieces unrefined, I seek otherworldly settings that represent how I mentally build and deconstruct environments. 

The natural world continues to be an inspiration in my work and a safe space where I go to ground myself and reflect on the world. When I paint, I approach nature with a feeling and the atmospheric space it creates. My work highlights color and form as I play with perspective and figure proportions. I like to make work that celebrates women and bodies and makes people feel a sense of familiarity juxtaposed with a unique style and approach.
