I'm driven to capture, interpret, and recreate on canvas the beauty that surrounds us at any given moment. Every detail from large to small, near or far tells a story, and is intricately stylized to form a flowing, cohesive, and visually stunning scene. Exaggerated brushstrokes inspired by forms found in nature allow a surreal and whimsical sense to take over, while possessing the detail and lighting that brings the viewer to the place that inspired it.
