ABOUT ME

Using 2D mixed media painting, I create contemporary landscapes with a focus on environmental disaster and climate change especially in the Pacific Northwest, where I was born and raised. My work draws from a variety of visual sources and techniques that create buzzing visual cues about memory, nostalgia, age, destruction, ruin, and intimations of transformation.
Encouraged to pursue art by my mentors and parents in highschool, I attended Cornish College of the Arts pre-college program, and then continued my education at Western Washington University, where I graduated in June of 2023 as the Outstanding Graduate from the College of Art and Art History with a Bachelors in Fine Arts.
Now, I live in Seattle with my cat and roommates who are frequent subjects of my paintings.
