Biography
Driven by a deep appreciation for the natural world, I use the pure, vibrant hues of pastels to express the intense colors and rich textures found in nature.
One of my greatest inspirations comes from walking along beaches after high tide, where the shoreline rocks reveal hidden displays of brilliant color. By looking closely at these tiny stones, I uncover intricate patterns and complex palettes that are easily missed at first glance. My goal as an artist is to preserve the quiet rhythm of nature. I invite viewers to pause, slow down, and discover the immense beauty that surrounds us.
A feature article on my art titled “Sublime Splendor” is published in the Fall 2026 issue of the Pastel Journal magazine. I’ve won awards in both national and international exhibitions, and my work is in private collections nationwide. I received a Bachelor of Arts in Art from California State University Northridge.
