My life-sized figurative paintings use energetic brushwork, vivid colors, and unfurling layers of painted flesh to explore humanity as a living, evolving force. I visually break down the body to reveal the spark of life—from the interweaving of systems that sustain a single person’s life to the connections between individuals across generations. Life is woven through us on these micro and macro scales.
My aim is to invite the viewer to think compassionately about their relationships with others and the surrounding world on a basic human level. I want to inspire and share respect for life.
