Artist Statement
I’m inspired by strong contrast, bursts of color, and fine details. I like to paint what I’m drawn to in the moment, whether it’s the subject matter or a shadow or a particular color. I’m interested in painting realistic subjects in an emotional and abstract way.

As a teacher, I’m passionate about demystifying the unpredictability of watercolor and helping students gain the skills and confidence to paint whatever they desire.
