ARTIST BIO

I am a figurative artist working with the narrative and abstraction. My work focuses on the process of drawing and painting, having a sense of immediacy and depicting an honest reaction to the subject matter.

I am interested in exploring relationships, allegories, and ambiguities of the human condition. My intention is to create subjective narratives that evoke an emotional response and develop a dialogue between the art and the viewer.

I am originally from North Carolina and have resided in Minneapolis for over a decade. I attended Syracuse University in New York for graduate studies in 2011. I received my BFA in Painting in 2006 from the Minneapolis College of Art and Design. I currently work full time in my studio located in Minneapolis. I regularly exhibit my work, curate exhibitions, and am very active in the local arts community.
