Selected paintings · 2024–2026

Another way
of seeing.

Painting and cooking begin in much the same place for me: with color, movement, memory, and the willingness to improvise.

These works move between the Cape Cod landscape and abstraction—familiar places broken apart, rebuilt, and made personal.

Artist statement

“I’m interested in what remains after a place is remembered—the colors that grow louder, the shapes that shift, and the feeling that refuses to stay still.”
