MEDIUMS: Oil | Mixed Media
SPECIALTY: ✔ Technique

My work is layered, figurative and portrays an ambiguous space where interior and exterior reality merge.

I observe the physical and emotional space around individuals, fascinated that our minds shift seamlessly between various physical, virtual and emotional realities.
Intrigued by these blurred boundaries, I play on the border between dream and reality, strength and fragility, control and abandon.

Nature forms a huge part of my sensory experience and is used as a symbol for realities felt but not seen. I focus on light and movement, taking joy in the alchemy of oil paint and the ancient abandon of charcoal.
