I am an up and coming self-taught artist, currently living and working in Central Oregon. I work mostly with acrylic paint, but have been known to experiment with water colors, oil pastels, ink, and mixed media. 

In late 2016, I began to focus on exploring the path towards abstract expressionism. It was through that exploration that I found an outlet to deal with the emotions stemming from the changing political climate, personal and career disappointments, and the loss of family members.

Since then, I have been following creative energy to where ever it takes me. My work varies in style but my use of color and contrast remains clear and unique to me.  

Thanks for visiting!
