Art isn’t something I do; It’s an identity.

My latest work is a play with maximalism using a minimalist color pallet. It incorporates sculptural elements onto canvas using clay, creating a dialog between sculpture, painting, and texture.

Every painting of this series starts as black canvas, then I create shapes and images using colored clay, then seal the clay using a gloss glue. That's then covered with white, unbleached titanium, gold, and silver paint. And finally I add the shimmer. the shimmer represents the shimmer that can be seen over the ocean when the sun is out. I purposely create artwork that cannot be created on a computer or replicated, so every piece is a one-of-a-kind original.

My artwork has featured in gallery group shows, Sierra Madre Art Fair, Art Palm Springs, Gallery 825 in Los Angeles, and a solo exhibit at Brittany Davis Gallery in Ojai. I am currently a continuing member of the Los Angeles Artists Associations (LAAA).
