Every painting begins with uncertainty. I build, erase, cover, sand, and reveal, allowing each layer to leave behind a memory of what came before. The finished piece isn't about perfection; it's about discovery. Hidden beneath every surface is the history of the painting itself, where each revealed mark is shaped by everything that came before.

​

Many of my paintings are intentionally sanded back, allowing earlier decisions to emerge again. Those rediscovered marks become as important as the ones I leave on the surface. 

​

My work is an invitation to slow down, look closer, and discover the stories waiting beneath the surface.

The Surface is only the Beginning
