I paint dreamlike stories, blending surrealism and impressionism to explore emotion through movement, texture, and touch.

I love creating large-scale paintings using my hands to move the paint intuitively across the surface. The physical connection lets me build texture, motion, and energy into each piece.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in everyday moments...watching light shift down a busy street or the horizon dissolve during a beach walk. It’s in perspective, movement, and atmosphere. I’m drawn to those in-between spaces where reality feels slightly altered, and emotion becomes more visible than form.
What would you do with $25,000?I would invest it into growing my art business, expanding materials, securing studio space, and building a stronger platform to share and sell my work as I move into this next chapter.
