Artist on VibrantCast

As an emerging artist in the last decade or so, my life’s experiences propel me through my work. With time to focus more on myself these days, my identity as a partner and parent has subsided, and the artist has been prioritized. I’ve never felt more at peace and myself as I do when I’m painting or surrounded by other art or artists. The focus of my art is always a subconscious snapshot of the world around me. Graffiti, architecture, nature. personal feelings about everyday experiences. What most captivates me is the juxtaposition of it all. Peeling paint, rust, and darkness alongside soft lines, smooth surfaces and light, the highs and lows of life and emotion as well. A reflection of my mind processing the beauty of my environment both externally and internally. Making art for me is an intuitive process that supports how I move through life’s challenges and joys.
