Welcome to me
I am an artist, a musician, a chef, an outdoor enthusiast, and a lover of all art forms and medias.
Born and raised in Kansas City, MO I have always been pulled towards nature. It is where my creativity really begins. Walking around barefoot somewhere beautiful has to be one of my favorite ways to get inspired. In 2019 I moved to Crested Butte, CO to experience the beautiful rocky mountains and try to capture them in my paintings. I am endlessly mesmerized by my surroundings and am always looking to explore.
about my style
My pixelated skies started as an abstract metaphor for our technological existence. From there I started to form a style that, for the most part, focuses on the contrast between geometric abstraction and flowing landscapes.
I am always looking for new ideas and practicing new techniques which means my style and subject constantly changes, which in my opinion is the best part about painting.
Art therapy
There is endless mindfulness that goes into creating art. One of my favorite things about painting is the feeling of the paint flowing on the canvas. Painting is a meditation and has been a form of medicine for myself, so I hope to help others use art to help themselves as well.
I will be starting a class series soon, going over oil/acrylic painting basics as well as use of texture in a meditative way. Basically it will be a really fun time hopefully building a community of artists! More info coming soon!
