While working at an art supply store, he developed a deeper interest in painting and connected with the vibrant local art community.

Artist Statement

I make playful abstract paintings that are full of color. I love working with vibrant colors like pinks, yellows and pastel blues that bring energy and joy into the work. Lately, I've been especially into painting abstract florals. I have never been great at painting something in a realistic way, so it's a fun challenge to paint my interpretation of it. Painting is fun for me, and I want that to come across in my work. I want my paintings to catch your eye, lift your mood, and more than anything, just feel good to look at.
