I create art to honor the beauty and awe I find in the everyday. Whether through large-scale oil paintings or intimate ceramic sculptures, my work celebrates the extraordinary hidden in ordinary moments.

In my paintings, I work on un-stretched canvas, layering thick, expressive color to transform familiar scenes into something monumental. Their size—often larger than my own wingspan—embodies the abundance I see in life. In contrast, my ceramic sculptures fit in the palm of a hand, inviting close connection. Hand-built in stoneware and finished with richly glazed surfaces, they capture small, relatable gestures of daily life, offering another way to experience intimacy and wonder.

Across both mediums, I begin with a feeling, mood, or fleeting moment that stirs me. Drawing or sketching helps me distill its essence, then I build it outward—through brushstrokes or clay—until the emotion that compelled me takes tangible form. Each piece moves through a cycle of adding, refining, and revealing until it resonates with the awe I seek to share.

My work is ultimately an invitation to connect: to slow down, to notice, and to find majesty in the everyday. By creating figurative art that others can connect to, I hope to spark recognition—those moments where the personal becomes universal, where the beauty I see becomes a mirror for your own.
