"Night"
The Night series was created with cold wax and oil paint, embedded with charcoal dust, then pressed, pummeled, and pushed into stone paper mounted on birch panel. Layers reveal a tactile depth, evoking the mystery of night. Rich textures emerge through relentless manipulation, forming a surface that holds light and shadow in equal measure.

Float
These paintings explore relationships, figures as organic shapes float in serene detachment, lifted by unseen forces. Soft pastel hues recall childhood’s innocent joy, while layered media—plaster, paper clay, and acrylic, capture evolving connections. Gentle movements and shifting compositions suggest the ease of weightless existence, drifting in dreamlike harmony.
-
Echo
The Echo series reflects the human experience of repetition, using natural materials like ash, paper, and beeswax. Layers of organic texture mirror cycles of memory and breath, creating a rhythmic dialogue between nature and art. Each mark is an echo, a reverberation of time, forming an abstract language of presence and return.

Reminiscent
These works prioritize suggestion over description, evoking landscapes without defining place. Through layered color and form, I work intuitively, allowing the painting to emerge in a way that feels real yet dreamlike. The interplay of submerged hues and shifting textures creates an atmosphere that is both familiar and elusive.

Rain
This series explores the essence of rain—its movement, weight, and sound—through layered textures of plaster, crackle, and folded Japanese paper. The interplay of materials immerses the viewer in rain’s sensory experience. Each surface captures the transient nature of water, where rivulets and pools dissolve into mist and memory.
-
Containment
Inspired by seed vessels, these paintings hold both past and future. Their weathered patina, built with walnut, ash, limestone, and plaster, reflects the wisdom of seeds—sacred containers of life and time. The delicate balance of fragility and resilience mirrors nature’s quiet patience and enduring strength.

Midcentury Modern
Rooted in childhood memories, these paintings use a limited palette of terracotta, burnt sienna, and ochre. Their layered construction and bold shapes evoke the warmth, structure, and nostalgia of home. Each form carries the residue of process, a visual history embedded in color and shape.
-
Small Reveries
Minimalist landscapes emerge through cold wax and oil, their colors shaped by squeegees into ethereal portals—spaces between memory and dream, where form dissolves into feeling. These intimate pieces invite quiet contemplation, revealing depth in their simplicity.
