Artistic Practice
I work in a mix of styles—painting, collage, and digital art—to explore identity, memory, and the things that shape who we are. Each piece is a moment to slow down, reflect, and connect. Whether I’m creating on canvas, paper, or screen, I’m always looking for ways to tell stories through color, texture, and rhythm.
collage
Collage is a newer part of my art practice, but it’s quickly become one of my favorites. I like how it challenges me to work with whatever I have on hand—scraps, shapes, textures—and figure out how they fit together. It feels a lot like solving a puzzle, where each piece helps tell the story.
I also use collage a lot when I teach. Whether it’s magazine clippings, watercolor paper, or drawings, it’s a fun and flexible way for students to explore creativity, identity, and decision-making. In the studio and in the classroom, collage reminds me that we can build something meaningful out of all the bits and pieces we carry.
Paintings
Digital Art
My digital art is another way I bring my ideas to life. Sometimes I start with a sketch—something rough or spontaneous—and then I clean it up, add color, and build on it using digital tools. Other times, I draw straight into Procreate, using techniques that feel a lot like how I paint.
I like that digital art lets me experiment freely. I can try new things, mix styles, and push ideas that might later show up in a painting, a mural, or even a T-shirt design. It’s become an important part of how I work and think as an artist.
