About Me
I spent the first eighteen years of my life growing up on the south shore of Oahu. I learned how to surf at age three, feeling grounded by the constant blue horizon and the majestic Hawaiian mountains. Growing up on the most isolated land mass in the world, I connected to the brilliant nature unfolding before me with the changing tradewinds.
When I see something beautiful that I do not fully understand, it ignites within me the impulse to make art. The textures and colors from our world contain spiritual elements, beckoning me to search for the sublime with my paint brushes and palette knives. I use abstract techniques to paint the break from the ordinary and unearth the soul behind the subject.
We are connected to nature and to each other in ways that we cannot always immediately see. Engaging with art allows us to feel like we are a part of something bigger, an awe-inspiring textural tapestry.
I’d love to meet you!
