Working with acrylics and encaustics, this artist creates layered abstract paintings that draw on organic abstraction and gestural landscapes. Influenced by natural forms such as wood grain, stone veins, and the shifting patterns of creek beds, the work emphasizes energy, movement, color, and texture. Their process is intuitive and exploratory, often beginning with color and developing through playful experimentation. Experience across multiple styles informs each new direction, with encaustic techniques introducing biomorphic elements throughout the practice. Every painting is built up in dozens of rich layers, each contributing to the sense of depth and underlying complexity.
