I received my BA from Ohio University. I was lucky enough to dive into my studio art classes with some of the best artists around (OK, I may be a little biased but really; best artists, PERIOD). The faculty at OU thrived on making their mini artists question, critique, lose their mind, & question their art some more. Until they felt that they may truly die from lack of conceptual ideas, much less the manifestation of these ‘ideas’. I graduated in 2011, with a handful of paintings that were good enough to throw on a website. I’ve spent my time since college focusing less on conceptual ideas & more on the materials in hand. While discovering what my materials can do for me, I find myself never being able to fight the urge to add more color & texture. I’ve given up on fighting this urge and now embrace it. I continue to find new ways to manipulate the paint & manifest my ideas. I encourage you to take notice to the variation in color, value, texture & movement in my art. These paintings are simply abstractions of everyday life, feelings & concerns. They’re inspired by my surroundings & are focused far more on the materials than the message.

Radar Hill, Athens, Ohio

Hi Friends, 

I found a flash drive I thought I had lost, and I was SO SO very happy. Why do you ask?? Because they had photos that my dear friend Krista and I had taken during our Hike to Radar Hill in Athens, Ohio. Athens is a very special place for me and these photos really exhibit just a touch of the beauty Athens, Ohio has to offer... that can be said for the entire region of Southeastern Ohio. Here are a few of the photos I took, I hope you enjoy these as much as I do. 


Peace&Love.
