In my artistic journey, I find freedom in wandering between mediums, loyal to none but hung up on a few. My process is characterized by a sense of spontaneity and surrender, where intuition reigns supreme and the act of creation emerges from a state of thoughtlessness. To "let go of thinking", as artist John Frame put it, allowing creativity to flow naturally. Themes emerge spontaneously, reflecting the serendipity of my wandering. With each creation, I embrace uncertainty and surrender to the process.

My artistic journey is a testament to the transformative power of self-discovery and resilience. From early inspirations to encounters with adversity, each experience has shaped me as both an artist and an individual. Nothing has fueled my art more than my need to indulge my curiosity for all sorts of tools and materials, while seeking out some peace and quite in my mind through the physical act of creating. This has taught me a diverse range of skills and techniques that I continue to grow year after year. I may have a few specialties but I strive to experience and learn as much as I can from every avenue of artistic expression.
