A quick sketch, a bit of color, an atmosphere, an emotion. So often, my works are mementos; tokens that bring me back to a specific moment, a memory made tangible.

A friend asked me, "Isn't it hard to let go of them?" But no, it's not. Whe

Year 2 at Art 10573, what a beautiful day to come look at art in the park!

Come to Crawford Park today 11am to 5pm and find something beautiful!

Very excited about how these totes with my paintings turned out. Just in time for Art10573 this weekend 🩷

Paid way too much for a table with this view but there was a live quintet and I regret nothing.
