I've spent much of my adult life moving between different artistic practices. Dance, photography, yoga, teaching, and painting have each offered me different ways to explore many of the same interests. I'm grateful that these practices have remained part of my life, and I hope they continue to influence one another as I age.

Painting is the place where those experiences come together.

I create artwork that moves between abstraction and recognizable imagery. Boats, birds, landscapes, and quiet figures often find their way into my work. I'm interested in how familiar forms can begin to feel different when their surroundings become less defined, and how a painting can suggest something without needing to explain it.

I've always been fascinated by the wildness of life. The constant change, the things we can't predict, the beauty and difficulty of it all. At the same time, I'm drawn to the possibility of peace, not necessarily as an escape from uncertainty, but as something we might find within it.

I don't always know what I'm looking for when I begin a painting. Sometimes I have a sense of a place, a memory, or a particular feeling, but much of the work happens through trial and error, through noticing something unexpected and allowing it to change what comes next.

I'm interested in making images that leave room for the viewer's own experiences and imagination.
