Artist's Statement

Despite today’s tumultuous events, I strive to focus on the beautiful and simple elements that continue to exist in our lives. I try to capture these transitory moments of meaningful reality into paintings that communicate a sense of wholeness, well-being and cohesiveness. It is in these moments that I am most at peace with the world and with myself, and I hope that viewers of my works can experience my perception.
