Growing up, I spent my days outside on a tree stump that was my fairy fort. It was surrounded by wildflowers and tall grass, shaded by trees, and visited by creatures of all kinds. It felt cozy and alive. I try to capture that feeling the best way I know how– to describe it in a painting. I’m always moving toward a life that’s more symbiotic with people, animals, plants and the other living things that I cross paths with every day. I currently reside in a cozy studio in NYC with my dog.
