A little about me
More than anything else, my art has always been a love letter to my environment: the land that I live on, the plants and animals that live there with me, my community. Art is a way for me to appreciate, understand, and explore my role in the ecosystem that we are all a part of, to illustrate the beauty and importance of interconnectedness in a world that feels increasingly fractured. It is a way for me to increase understanding and to share joy and love.
