ARTIST STATEMENT: 

My paintings have been described as abstract but to me, they are simple explorations into physicality, texture and the emotional journey through color. My work is a process of putting on and taking off; which reflects various layers of mediums. 

My work’s intention is that the observer will continue to discover a new perspective of the world, expansion in self-awareness and to be comfortable loving something that they may not completely understand...
