Bio

I am an acrylic painter from the Bay Area of California, and recieved my BFA in Painting from the Maryland Institute College of Art in Baltimore.

The landscape of Northern California features heavily in my work, most of which centers around natural spaces and environments, and the earthly cycles to which we are all bound. My paintings are stylistically influenced by print-based media, sequential art, and other forms of graphic illustration. These influences are visible in the color and compositions of my paintings and the use framing and paneling. Thematically, I’m interested in the nature of memory and the fragments of our lives that we collect over time that shape our understanding of the past. I am also drawn to cycles such as seasonal changes, cycles of growth and decay, and of loss and healing. In 2023 I received my MFA in Animation UCLA, an experience that has further incluenced how I think about time and narrative versus non narrative storytelling.
