A NOTE FROM THE ARTIST

On Growing Beauty From the Ground Up

My studio practice begins in the soil. I grow many of the botanical elements that appear in my work. Each seed is planted with intention, and each bloom is harvested at its peak. The art begins here, where growing and creating follow the same quiet principles.

When collectors bring my work into their spaces, they are stepping into a story that began long before the frame was built or the canvas stretched. It began with a quiet gesture… planting a seed and the patient act of tending to its growth.

From Soil to Sanctuary

This philosophy is about growing beauty from the ground up. It reflects my belief that how we cultivate our lives is inseparable from how we create art. Gardening and art-making are parallel expressions of the same values: attention, intuition, care, and reverence for transformation. Its cycles mirror the emotional and creative rhythms that shape the human experience.

I have learned to honor both vibrant growth and necessary stillness. I have come to trust that light follows darkness, and that vulnerability often becomes the very soil of strength.

Through my multidisciplinary work (painting, photography, sculpture, film, and writing), I explore how beauty, when cultivated from within, becomes a universal language. It speaks to joy, resilience, grief, wonder, and the quiet truths that live beneath the surface of things.

In a world that rewards speed and distraction, I am committed to the radical act of attention. This is a reclamation of depth in an age of immediacy. It positions this type of beauty as essential nourishment. It is for the psyche, spirit, and the communities we shape.

Over time, my work has grown from creating individual pieces to cultivating immersive environments. These include spaces, conversations, and experiences where beauty can be encountered in its most authentic and transformative forms.
