About the Artist

As a lifelong dancer, competitive swimmer, and skydiver enthusiast, I found myself drawn to depict on canvas the palpable energy of the human body in motion by combining dance, water, and air in my paintings. Through my work, I turn figures into fluid entities to create an otherworldly likeness. My goal is that when someone looks closely at one of my pieces, they will not only see ethereal images and feel their essential vitality, but also be moved to generate positive forces in their life. These four paintings represent the four elements that life could not possibly flourish or sustain itself without each other: Earth, Water, Fire, and Air.
