Portfolio, All Works

Works are presented at their original scales and in varying formats (single panels, diptychs, triptychs, quadriptychs, and hexaptychs). Many pieces are large-scale or multi-panel and are intended to be experienced immersively, outside conventional norms.

This archive contains the full breadth of my practice as a contemporary artist working in both figurative and non-figurative painting.

Dark yet hopeful.
