Statement

I am a figurative painter whose work is deeply narrative. I find importance and interest in the brief, hazy moments of life and the fragments of memory they leave behind. My family, childhood, femininity, and everyday life all serve as a source of inspiration for my paintings. I use memories and old photographs as reference for my work. Oil paint and watercolor are my preferred mediums to share these stories.
