Meet the Artist

My work tells the story of my surroundings and my past through visual narratives. I aim to create pieces that are engaging, sincere, and deeply involved. Each artwork is crafted with care to evoke feelings, convey stories, and foster connections. When you experience these works, I hope you feel love, joy, exuberance, and wonder.

 

In my studio, I keep various books nearby for inspiration: children's books for their whimsy, botany books for detail, vintage wallpaper for patterns and color relationships, and ornithology and entomology books for accuracy. A good story is made of many elements, and these resources help me weave them together. With every series, I aim to create a contemporary folklore that resonates today. 

ARTIST STATEMENT

My work is a visual narrative of my surroundings and my past. I am a storyteller. Using the porcelain vessel as a container for sharing memory, magic and nature I attempt to manifest ephemeral feelings and nostalgia. The fleeting joy of colors that come with short seasons and the yearning we feel for that color once winter has arrived. I am inspired by what I see and try to capture that.

My current work is called “Forest Tales” and relays a story about searching for something deeper. I ask you to lift the ground from under you to explore deeply the magic around us that we are in peril of losing. Darkness, light and magic. All of it. Suspending your beliefs and reckoning back to your younger self. The experience of having lost the innocence of childhood and magical thinking, and now living with the reality of that. You experience JOY but know the consequence of not protecting or guarding the source of it. Nature is calling to us to experience its beauty and its loss. The complexity of these emotions are what calls me to make this work.
