I am an expressive, modern narrative painter who explores human existence, nostalgia and curiosity provoking scenarios. Whether whimsical or haunting, my paintings and drawings are meant to start a story in the viewer’s mind. Global food culture is also a passion and creative outlet for me, in both the studio and the kitchen. I hope to find kindred spirits and to celebrate heartfelt, sensory and meaningful parts of life through my work.
