"Apple Twirl" - 2024
This is a piece made with dollops of acrylic paint that is applied with the edge of a palette knife onto a 4” by 4” wooden square. This piece was made to capture the organic flesh of the apple and the specific texture of an apple eaten to its core.

"Pink Radio" - 2023
A depiction of the inside of an old pink radio; too broken for repair. The outside and the inside, despite both being beyond repair, were both beautiful. Items so easily come and go and this is an homage to all of the things loved and lost.

"Egg Sunrise" - 2025
Painting with pastel colors that have an undertone like the tan of an egg. The colors are similar to eggs dyed with felt, silk, tissue paper, and tied into an onion skins. These eggs are then boiled and unpeeled to see the art imprinted into the shell. Painted the first year far away from family over the Easter holiday.

"Jeffery" - 2025
While in college in Iowa, I had the only pet I could in my shared dorm room: a betta fish. It was always soothing to watch him swim after class or work. Jeffery was beautiful and colorful, and though this is not a one-for-one depiction of him, it does show the vibrancy of his body and fanning tail.
