La Vie en Rose

Artist statement:

My work explores memory, movement, and the emotional resonance of place. I paint primarily abstract paintings in acrylic on large gallery-wrapped canvases, and Japanese watercolors when traveling. I build texture through slow, meditative layering - often reworking older pieces as a form of discovery and reflection.

 

Nature, architecture, and the light of places I've called home - shape my visual language - from Colorado to Santa Barbara, or where I often visit my family from Paris to Switzerland. 

My father's progressive complete loss of vision instilled in me a deep reverence for sight and visual perception. That awareness fuels both the urgency and gratitude I bring to my creative practice. 

Music is essential to my process. With a background in dance - from classical ballet to hip hop, I've found that painting, like movement, is a mediation in rhythm and flow.

Most of my pieces are custom commissions, created in collaboration with my clients to reflect their stories and spaces.
