About

I am an artist and art educator hailing from the Western Mountains of Maine, now residing outside of Portland, Maine.. Painting is my chief form of artistic expression. It is a means for me to share my take on the world around me, up close and from a distance. My work is autobiographical at times, as the concept of place and space being consistent themes. I also enjoy capturing what often goes unnoticed by the casual passerby--I am drawn to producing extremely close-up images of an aesthetic moment that is otherwise ignored.  My work is about vibrant color, strong light sources, and heavy doses of contrast to draw in the viewer.
