my work…

Grounded in drawing and painting, my work builds through fragments and sheer layers to hint at abstracted forms of nature and the body.

Working intuitively, the process often captures feelings of nostalgia and yearning for places and possibilities beyond, leaving traces behind that are dizzying, whimsical, and ethereal.

“My paintings are fantasies - that is what makes them queer”

- Paul Heyer

Drawing from queer lineage, I paint from a place of personal permission as playfully as I do earnestly to imagine possibilities beyond the noise.
