Artist Statement
Color moves me and arrests me at once. I am inspired to linger, to look, to indulge in the pleasure of light and color dancing on humble objects and in the ordinary scenes of my daily life.
Recent events have rattled me from the sunny solace of the well-composed still life. This is not a time to linger. This is a time to engage, to question, to proclaim.
Liberty, justice, and freedom are not the birthright of one party, race, or nation. These are unalienable rights endowed by the Creator.
Around the world, stand mighty women—Lady Liberty, Lady Justice, Freedom—honoring these universal philosophies held dear by all humanity. Through my paintings, I aim to illuminate the ideals that have mapped the course of cultures throughout history.
I am an artist and freelance graphic designer living in Free Union, Virginia.
