Statement
As an artist, my goal is to illuminate the dialogue between colors through purposeful shapes and proportions. I’m fascinated by the connections between colors and the power that opposites hold, whether they pertain to color, shape, or texture, in story-telling. I’m most inspired by stories and emotions, which lend themselves so perfectly to abstract art because of the flexible boundaries and intangibility of its subject matter.
