Statement
Painting quiet moments out loud, my work celebrates the drama of ordinary by connecting to the unexpected using bold color, dramatic perspective, and embellished shadows. Finding resilience in the familiar, I strive to mix an element of surprise, comfort, and whimsy in my work.
A sense of being alone is a common thread in my painting, even with group depictions. Despite being surrounded by friends, family, and acquaintances, we are all alone on our journey through life. We try to relate in our endless search for connection, but we still feel loneliness and isolation due to our unique qualities, which make us feel separate. Combining imagery of being different and unexpected with the feel of familiar comfort, we celebrate inclusion and our unconventional self as something to embrace.
