Artist's Statement
Drawn to the natural environment, I see the world in bold, saturated colors and graphic, organic shapes.
These are the fundamental characteristics that define my signature style.
Though deeply rooted in Americana, I am heavily influenced by Eastern, Hawaiian, and Polynesian art and culture.
I find endless inspiration from ocean life, tropical plants, and exotic florals—which, when combined, become the foundation for prevalent themes.
Texture, layers, contrast, scale, and hierarchy are tools that I am exploring with in order to create depth within an abstract aesthetic.
I approach the viewer with an enlarged snapshot, forcing her/him to pause and look at my small canvas with its big image.
