I am a multidisciplinary artist making paintings, clay sculpture and functional ware under the design line ceramic scg.
Landscape informs my visual language, with botanical renderings and expansive vistas observed during walks. My paintings feature ubiquitous flowers and building materials, while sidewalk cracks and survey signs suggest change and growth. Through encaustic and mixed media, I explore the beauty and tension between human existence and nature.
Clay serves as a tactile extension of my creativity, allowing me to create both sculptural works and functional pottery. Interpretive, spherical forms draw from ancient ceramic traditions and celestial elements. There is a fluid exchange between dimensions in media: space and mass are present in my paintings while ceramic pieces derive influence from life drawing.
Community is also central to my art practice. I founded and now lead Studio Union, a space that provides affordable, inspiring studios for local artists in my city.
