A Bit About Me

I am a contemporary figurative painter using bold colors and dream-like imagery to explore themes of ambivalence, transformation, and the inner mental world.

 

Born in Kansas City, Missouri, I received a BFA in Painting & Drawing from the University of Central Missouri in 2019. Today, I am living and working in the Seattle, wa area.
