I am a second generation expressionist painter living and working in Washington with a focus on creating paintings that embody movement, energy, and luminous light. My work uses a mix of expressionism and abstraction and puts cognitive thinking in the foreground, letting the viewer discover things along the way through the colorful flowing lines.

I have found that art is a binder; it brings people together in thoughts, feelings, and expressions. By retelling history, bringing back special people and places that have been misplaced, overwritten or forgotten, we keep our history alive and create curiosity in the mind to learn more. These types of conversations provide non-invasive ways to discuss everything about the painted subject and bring social consciousness to all. I use art as a way to awaken cognitive thought, harness creative energy, and research the limits of universal thinking.
