Artist Statement

Recently graduated with a degree in Studio Art, I am in the beginning stages of my career and life that lay ahead. I get to decide who I am, who I want to become, and what I want to share through my work. Painting is a physical manifestation of my state of mind and explores its ever-changing landscape through my creative process. Mixing paint colors, I inhale. Putting the brush to canvas, I exhale. Through the utilization of layering and mark-making in varying opacities, colors, and shapes, I breathe life into my work. Seeing beauty in the everyday, I find inspiration from the natural world and want to encourage others to do the same; to slow down and appreciate the value of life and the world around them. 

Each of my works are a letter of appreciation for the human nature, relying on color, form, and value to create a compositional-landscape. A heavy emphasis on the use of brushstrokes, varying in both size and shape, creates movement within my work to push a dynamic flow that keeps the eye moving and reinforces my belief that everything in life is connected. Utilizing acrylic glazes and a wide breadth of value serves to provide depth, emulating the complexity and fluidity of humanity, memory, and thought. Color can have a major influence on mood and emotion, so by working with bold uses of bright, saturated colors I focus on the positive aspects of life in a world that often dwells in the negatives.
