Interplay

Being from Roanoke, VA, my process is driven by a deep engagement with the landscapes of the Appalachians. The mountains, with their majestic peaks and serene valleys, serve as both a source of inspiration and a metaphor for the emotional terrain we navigate in times of sorrow. Through intricate geometric patterns and harmonious color palettes, I strive to capture the essence of grief and translate it into a visual language that evokes introspection and healing.

The rhythmic repetition of line work reflects the cyclical nature of grief, the ebb and flow of emotions, and the transformative power of time.

Through my paintings, I invite viewers to embark on their own emotional journey, to connect with the profound landscapes of the Appalachian mountains, and to find solace in the transformative power of art. It is my hope that my work serves as a catalyst for introspection, healing, and a deeper understanding of the human experience.

In essence, my artistic practice is an exploration of grief, a celebration of the Appalachian mountains, and a testament to the resilience of the human spirit.
