Artist Statement: I am a mixed-media acrylic artist whose work is rooted in earth, nature, and lived experience. My paintings are built rather than simply painted — layered with intense color, heavy texture, and physical presence. The surfaces invite touch because the work itself is tactile, honest, and unapologetically human. Nature is my visual language, but memory is my subject. Each piece carries accumulated life: moments of joy, loss, growth, and time passing. Like the land itself, my work holds layers — some visible, some buried — shaped by weathering, pressure, and persistence. Color strikes first, but what lingers is recognition: a feeling, a place, or a memory viewers didn’t realize they were carrying until they encountered it. I aim to create a deep emotional connection between the work and the viewer. These paintings are not meant to explain or instruct; they are meant to be felt. When someone stands before my work, I want them to see traces of their own experiences reflected back — familiar, textured, and alive — and to feel that quiet moment when art becomes personal
