Nature, Nostalgia, Emotion

Inspired by an Ozark mountain childhood, I now translate nature’s legacy into watercolor from my Cincinnati home studio. My paintings serve as an internal dialogue and a bridge between memory and reality. I am dedicated to capturing the quiet beauty of the wild, preserving fleeting moments in fluid, lasting forms that resonate deeply.

Gathering the Ground

Curating raw pigments and tactile grains grounds each piece in the wild grit of our natural landscapes.

Letting the Water Speak

Surrendering to the water's flow, letting pigments bleed into emotive, raw, and organic landscapes.

Revealing the Form

As it settles and dries, the work unveils its true, soulful essence.
