I work primarily in digital painting and printmaking, extending these images into limited-edition prints and textile pieces produced with environmentally conscious materials. Color is my primary medium: layered gradients, translucent washes, and precise lines define form and movement, while printmaking and occasional hand-applied finishes translate digital studies into tactile objects for domestic and public spaces.
My practice is driven by an interest in transformation—how a slight shift in hue or pattern alters perception, how a single wing implies motion and narrative. I am drawn to the formal language of nature: the geometry of wing venation, the economy of patterning, the fleeting choreography of migration. Influences range from field observation and natural-history illustration to mid-century color theory and folk textile traditions; these strands converge into work that presents color as both subject and syntax. I aim to convey quiet energy and a sense of gradual change rather than spectacle.
The work begins with direct observation and hand sketching, then moves into digital color studies where I experiment with gradient mapping, layered translucency, and repeated motifs to suggest flight and congregation. I combine vector precision with painterly texture, then choose production methods that reflect my environmental commitments—giclée prints on recycled or sustainably sourced papers, plant-based inks, and limited runs to minimize waste. When appropriate, I add physical interventions—screen-printed layers or subtle varnishes—to introduce scale and tactility without compromising sustainability.
Across the body of work, I pursue clarity and restraint: compositions that reveal their structure through color relationships and spatial rhythm. My pieces are intended to bring moments of reflection and quiet wonder to everyday spaces while acknowledging the ecological systems that inspire them.
