I paint the moments that make me stop.
Sometimes they’re quiet. Sometimes, they’re strange. Sometimes, they’re ordinary enough that most people would walk right past them.
Most of my paintings begin with someting I can’t stop thinking about - a conversation, butterflies gathering at the entrance to a beach, the light on a swimming pool, an old rotary telephone, or an emotion that refuses to leave until I physically express it.
I work in both figure and abstract styles and in both oil and acrylic mediums, but to me, they’re part of the same conversation. I’m interested in the moments that sit just beyond language - the ones we internally recognize just before we understand.
I rarely know exactly where a painting is going when I begin. Following that uncertainty is an integral part of my process.
I studied Fine Arts at Adelphi University, Art Therapy at Pratt Institute and Studio Art at Art Centers International in Florence, Italy.
Today, I paint from my studio in Connecticut, continuing to following whatever captures my attention next.
All of my available paintings are originals, but I look forward to offering high quality prints in the near future.
All works ship worldwide.
I hope you’ve enjoyed your visit, thank you for stopping by!
