“Let the beauty we love be what we do. There are hundreds of ways to kneel and kiss the ground.” -Rumi

Artist Statement

 

My work is rooted in the human experience its highs and lows, its joy and suffering, its capacity for both love and conflict. I am drawn to what makes us most human: our ability to love, to sacrifice, and to place the needs of others above our own.

​

In a world of billions, I have come to believe that one life can profoundly impact many. That belief is at the core of my work. Through painting, I seek to bring viewers to a conscious awareness of the power each person holds to create meaningful, positive change through love, compassion, and faith.

​

Choosing to be fully present to step out of autopilot and take ownership of my life has taught me that compassion is not abstract; it is a decision. It is practiced daily, in how we see and serve others.

​

My work is also a reminder that humanity is not defined by wealth or status, but by the condition of the heart. As children, we love freely and without prejudice. To become the fullest version of ourselves, we must find our way back to that kind of love.
