I paint to explore the connection between inner experience and the beauty of the natural world.
My work is rooted in classical technique, with a strong focus on the human figure, often expressed through feminine presence and symbolic undertones. I’m currently in a phase of exploration, refining a language that moves between structure and intuition, realism and material presence.
Before returning fully to painting, I spent several years working in fashion design across Chicago, New York, Los Angeles, San Diego, and San Francisco — including time with Calvin Klein and the development of my own design line. That experience continues to inform my sensitivity to form, movement, and composition.
Now based in Scottsdale, Arizona, I’m immersed in a vibrant and serious art environment, surrounded by contemporary painters and a culture that values both discipline and individuality. This proximity to strong artistic voices continues to shape and elevate my work.
I am currently focused on developing a more defined and mature body of work, pushing toward a deeper integration of realism, material exploration, and symbolic content.
My work invites the viewer to experience a sense of beauty, presence, and quiet connection.
