Mark making is central in my work where each brush stroke brings about a reaction and leads to the next step. My paintings are at the edge between abstraction and figuration. I derive my motifs and color palette from every day encounters and personal events. In the end, they are observations of the everyday that at times go un-noticed; a celebration of the little things you see that stay in the back of your mind.

My recent body of work is inspired by Northern Californian nature. The colors, patterns, lushness and even feel of weather are translated in abstract forms.
