My paintings emerge from moments of visual intrigue gathered through daily life, travel, and close observation of the familiar. Landscape, interiors, still life, and the figure become starting points for exploring the space between abstraction and representation.
Working intuitively with color, gesture, and form, I prioritize sensation over literal representation. I am drawn to the tension between structure and spontaneity, balancing intention with discovery. Some paintings emerge quickly; others unfold through layers of seeking, responding to what the painting reveals along the way.
As the work develops, a single moment may expand into gathered impressions, memories, and visual fragments. Familiar subjects shift beyond their original source, becoming expressions of the energy, optimism, and emotion that first sparked the process. Rather than offering a fixed narrative, my paintings leave space for viewers to discover their own connections.
