ARTIST STATEMENT
“I want my work to hold a quiet presence - something felt before it is fully understood.”
I am is a Pacific Northwest mixed-media artist with over 25 years of professional artistic practice.
My architecturally layered collage totems draw from landscape, mineral textures, and atmospheric light, forming vertical works that balance structure and luminosity.
My compositions merge photography, surface layering, and hand-built elements, creating pieces that feel both grounded and luminous. Each reflects a disciplined studio practice devoted to material integrity and structural clarity.
My work is held in over 960 private and corporate collections across more than 300 cities and eight countries.
Working from my studio in Kennewick, Washington, I continue to refine a visual language rooted in depth, restraint, and enduring presence.
My work invites viewers into a space of balance and quiet elevation — a pause within the experience of seeing.
