I am a self-taught photographer and painter driven by an insatiable curiosity to explore the world through my lens and paintings. Photography and painting, for me, is not merely a choice but a compelling force that urges me to capture and interpret the world around me.

My journey is a continuous quest to discover where the art of painting and photography can lead me. I strive to create images that resonate at an emotional level, forging a profound connection between the image and the observer. Whether it's a moment of joy, a spark of excitement, or a deeper, more contemplative feeling, my aim is to evoke a spectrum of emotions that invite viewers to engage and reflect.

I want my images to prompt questions and stir desires: Does this image inspire you to explore, give you joy or participate? By challenging perceptions and encouraging interaction, I hope to transform passive observation into an active, visceral or emotional experience.

What style of artwork Do I work In?

My artwork doesn’t fit into a single style—I’m moved by many. I Influenced by Simon Bull and Erin Hansen cross both my photography and my paintings, I gravitate toward bold colors, expressive movement, visceral emotion, and abstract forms. I love crafting striking digital imagery as much as creating with traditional materials

What Inspires me to create?

What inspires me to create is the emotional conversation between the artwork and the viewer. Each art form I work in carries its own intention, but they all share a common purpose: to ask you how the image makes you feel. Does it spark joy, stir sadness, or evoke something visceral and unexpected. What story does it tell you. Do you feel drawn toward it or pushed away from it. My work exists to ignite that response.
