Who am I?
As a Colorado native, I’ve always been deeply inspired by the natural beauty around me. I’ve had an interest in art since as far back as I can remember and am grateful to have the opportunity share it with others.
I paint landscapes, but not to capture them as they are—I strive to paint them as they feel.
Colorado Soul
"Through oil paint, I explore the spirit, light, and quiet majesty of Colorado's landscapes. Inspired by Pikes Peak, America's Mountain, and the enduring beauty of the West, my work seeks not only to depict a place, but to capture its soul."
There is no single method guiding my work except my medium, oil on canvas. I move somewhere between approaches, letting each painting find its own language. What remains constant is a quiet intention: to create something soft, still, and contemplative—something that invites you in, asks you to pause, and stay a while.
Before I begin, I carry a sense of the painting within me—an emotional direction more than a fixed image. But once I start, I allow the process to unfold with its own rhythm. Each new piece begins with the remnants of the last: I gather the unused paint, mix it into a new, unrepeatable color, and let it shape what comes next. Because of this, no palette is ever the same. The tones shift, the saturation changes, and each painting holds a subtle trace of what came before.
In this way, my work becomes a quiet continuum—each piece connected, yet entirely its own—like moments in a landscape that never repeats, but always feels familiar.
