Artist Statement:  "Guardian" captures the fierce, unwavering strength of a mother’s love. It's a protective force that is relentless, steadfast, and powerful. There’s a sense of resilience in this nurturing, a love that never wavers, no matter the challenges. It’s the kind of love that doesn’t back down, and that stands strong as a source of unwavering security for the one who is cared for.

Artist Bio: My art is a collection of visual waypoints; natural stopping places to consider locations and experiences that feel important and worthy of deeper observation. I’m interested in our interpersonal relationships and our sense of place, and the sweet spots in between where the magic of our lives often appears. My work helps me explore what it means to exist in a particular moment. I use intuitive color palettes and marks that feel immediate; my paintings are bold and messy, just as life can be.
