About

Hello!

I am endlessly fascinated by the animals, plants, and insects with which humans share this earth. They are a wonder. Yet somehow, humans have developed the idea that we are at the top of the food chain, the apex of evolution. I don’t think that’s true. 

The more I learn about the ways in which animals interact with one another, and the ways in which they impact our earth, the more convinced I am that humans are (at best) on equal footing. Elephants grieve, worms feel love, wolves get jealous, and turtle tears nourish dehydrated butterflies. 

This world is too beautiful not to notice. 

My artwork is an expression of these stories. I use bold colors and expressive brush strokes to capture the energy of the animals I paint. My hope is that my work helps humans consider their place in the world differently and to show greater respect, empathy, and love towards the animals we share this planet with.

Thank you for stopping by!
