Growing up in Southern California I fell in love with light, so I work to create a luminous atmosphere you can breathe. I am interested in creating a surface full of dynamic rhythms that your eye can dance across in order to entice the viewer in the here and now. I want the very act of painting to mirror the experience of the viewer.
