I work with both paper and wood to create abstract, non-objective paintings. I begin with hand-painted papers or reclaimed wood, incorporating elements of historical typography and integrating various found pieces. The joy of the process lies in the careful layering of the materials, as the discovery of a bold shape, a beautifully jagged edge, or the remnants of previous layers directs the composition

  As a former graphic designer and art director, my paintings bear the influence of grids and typography. The resulting pieces possess a sense of order and balance, although I strive to include surprising elements that disrupt complete symmetry.

  I live and work on the coast of Rhode Island, finding inspiration in my surroundings. Through my paintings, I invite viewers to embark on a visual journey of discovery through the  layers of emotion and history.
