About

Abstract Expressionist Artist

Freeform, spontaneous, raw and organic; with a steadfast belief in the expressive power of abstract art.

I seek to create visually interesting and layered textural artwork, exploring gestural movements shaped by intuition and experimentation to capture energy and emotion. I aspire to create meaningful experiences for the viewer and to enrich the space in which a piece resides.

Working primarily with acrylic mediums, most of my pieces are unplanned compositions that can start on a frenzied or chaotic path, evolving organically and ultimately leading to a balanced and harmonious composition.

For me, painting is a performative act. I let the mediums take me on a journey of texture, color and light. A feeling, emotion, and more importantly…sound, rhythm or a certain piece of music supports the journey. I create abstract art that encourages individual interpretation of each piece.

I use acrylic, ink, pencil, fiber paste, volcanic ash, thread and other mediums on paper, canvas and wood panels. I repurpose vintage and found frames for my wood panel pieces.

Born and raised in Alabama, where I studied art history and technical illustration; I began painting in 2020. I am currently located in the greater Detroit, Michigan area where I have been juried into numerous group shows. Select works available at Posterity Gallery in Grosse Pointe, MI.

Artwork also available directly from the ArtClvb app or website.
