Meet the Artist

I live and create in Upstate New York. As a child, I received art training but had to take a multi-decade break from art before finding my way back to painting. My life has been filled with amazing people, lessons and discoveries, bright days and dark days – all of which I am now communicating through my art.

I love the magic of colors and shapes, the way they harmonize, move, support or confront each other, the way they communicate what words cannot express. In my artistic journey, I prioritize curiosity and exploration more than consistency. This is probably why my art pieces seem so different from each other. I don’t shy away from experimenting with different painting media and techniques, and I love to start a new piece by asking, “What if..?”

Those who own – or, as I prefer to say, give a new home to – my artwork, know that they have a truly unique art piece, created with joy and love, and driven by curiosity. I hope my work inspires my art collectors to stay open to their world and take good care of everything and everyone in it
