" I invite the viewer to glimpse into my experiences in spirituality and the people that have shaped my journey as it is defined through paper and paint. They are enveloped in beeswax that, like my life, yields a spectral opaque dimension, encaustic by nature and abstract in presentation; as I reveals my love of family, my influence by place, and the strength of my determination to explore and document through art."
