Sometimes I find it hard to access my own thoughts and feelings. One way I can do this is through painting and printmaking.
My paintings and prints are based on reflections and memories but are tethered to my direct experience with nature.
Some days the mere fact of seeing a tree or a cloud feels like perfect happiness. I want to share my experience of nature through painting. I find nature to be affirming and steading, and hope this comes across in my work.

Process is important in my work. While there is some planning at the beginning and the end, the middle part is mostly intuitive. I like to be surprised with what comes out. I am not interested in copying pictures of nature, but rather in representing nature’s energy and motion, in making its rhythms visible.

​I am interested in movement and growth, from the microcosm to the macrocosm, the dynamic processes of nature, how natural forms use light to grow, and how light moves. My work is a search for natural order (not neatness, but an underlying structure), for an organized space (based on the laws of nature), and for a better understanding of the relationship between humans and the natural world.
