Artist Statement

In the studio I experiment with a mix of materials and techniques, crafting pieces that are both sophisticated and whimsical. I focus on abstract realism allowing my passion for creativity to translate into expressive and joyful pieces that resonate with the universal experiences of life. Each piece aims to evoke happiness and connection, offering viewers a vibrant escape and a splash of joy to their surroundings.

With a focus on resilience, creativity, purpose, connection, and vibrancy, I strive to create art that not only reflects my unique perspective but also brings warmth and inspiration into everyday life. As I continue to expand my creative process and following, my mission remains the same; to spread happiness through art.
