I create oil paintings on wood panels. Oils are dynamic, similar to nature - allowing me to flow with the waters movement, splatter the crashing waves, and mold peaks into the earth.
Where do you find inspiration?My landscapes are inspired by places I’ve seen and lived. I love the forgiving nature of a landscape, a space where imperfections are welcomed and become part of the story.
What would you do with $25,000?I would contribute $25,000 to bringing a my vision to life of opening a gallery and café in my city of Red Bank, NJ. Red Bank has an incredible art community. I want to create a warm space where local artists can share their work and people can slow down, connect, and feel inspired. This is more than just a place for coffee, it’s somewhere creativity is celebrated and cultivated, it’s where conversations happen easily, art feels accessible, and supporting local talent is cherished.
