Rooted in practices of observation, meditation painting, and ecological inquiry, these series explore the interconnected relationships between place, memory, perception, and the more-than-human world.

Working both on location in South Texas and Galicia, Spain, I use painting as a form of listening and conversation with the environments I inhabit. The works move between direct field response and larger studio explorations, tracing experiences of attention, movement, ecology, and belonging across diverse landscapes and evolving ways of seeing.
