Artist Statement
I am an Artist working out of a studio space in Greenpoint. I grew up with a passion for art and creating, mostly focusing on illustration and painting. Over the years I have taken courses at a number of NYC institutions, including the Brooklyn Museum, the Art Students League, NYU, and Wesleyan University, where I completed a BA in History. I relished my time taking courses in painting, drawing, and more esoteric forms of art such as Sumi – E painting. I am now a full time artist dedicated to developing my practice, oeuvre, and voice. My paintings combine representational and abstracted elements. I like to capture the spirit and energy of my subject matter with my unique color palette and loose brushwork while maintaining the underpinnings of more structured and disciplined practices of representational work. My aim is to ground the painting and maintain the traditional approaches to dimensions, ratios, and spacing.
