I seek to create work that investigates my relationship with the world around me. This investigation takes the form of commonly found subjects that I use as actors to experience and communicate this relationship. Though my work personally investigates larger notions of the human condition, subtly is of the utmost importance. I seek to find beauty and obscurity where it is often overlooked.
I moved to the United States in 2006 from Toronto, Canada where I hold degrees in fine arts and psychology. I have been involved with printmaking for more than 5 years and have shown work throughout Canada. I hold several awards for my work in printmaking.
