    I make atmospheric abstract paintings that are gestural and layered. My creative process is fluid and improvisational. It is rooted in abstract expressionism and very much about being in my body–about being embodied. Subtle traces and gauzy flat layers are balanced with craggy lines, clunky marks and saturated colors. There is a casualness to the work, often revealing abrupt edges or unfinished corners that suggest a continuation.

    I am based in Portland, Oregon.
