Artist Statement
Central to my art is a profound connection with spirituality, which is the driving force behind my creative process. I believe in the transformative and healing power of art, aiming to share the universal truths, mysteries, and questions at the heart of our existence. Art has the remarkable ability to transcend language, culture, and religion, connecting us all on a much deeper level.
My journey has led me to the beauty and wildness of the Indiana Dunes National Park, where I currently reside. Nature is a constant source of inspiration and beauty for me. I work primarily with acrylics to create art that reflects my deepest experiences and my conviction in the potency of our experiences and connectedness. I believe sharing our hearts and narratives can reshape our world into a gentler and more loving place.
Simultaneously, my work remains deeply personal, reflecting my own inner journey. For me, creating is a means of connecting with the divine and with my deepest self. Through my art, I aim to create a space for healing and contemplation, encouraging viewers to reflect on their own relationship with these themes.
Ultimately, my art is an expression of life in all its intricate beauty and complexity. My hope is that my creations inspire others to connect with their inner truth, leading them to discover more wholeness and deeper meaning in their lives.
