Sweetgum - Limited Edition Print

My work isn’t simply about the subjects I paint—it’s about the story each piece holds beneath the surface. Every gesture, figure, or motif is a vessel for something deeper: a narrative thread, a remembered feeling, a provocation. The concept drives the composition. I’m less interested in perfect likeness and more drawn to evoking something intangible—an atmosphere, a tension, a moment suspended in thought. Ultimately, I’m interested in building pieces with a strong sense of character—works that feel alive and invite the viewer into a layered, emotional world.
