Much of my art explores the connection of systems through repetition and color.

"The Blue Map" acryllic and gel pen on canvas

I’ve held a deep love for maps and instruction manuals since I was little.

Fascinated by how things work and how cities are structured, I spent much of childhood drawing imaginary cities and diagrams. I continued studying drawing in high school and explored various mediums at Chico State including wood and fabric sculpture, and arc welding. I graduated Chico State with a BA in Visual Communications (Graphic Design) and a minor in Small Business Entrepreneurship. My most recent public art project was painting a newspaper stand for the Chico News and Review.

Texture printmaking. Original carved rubber blocks.

I’ve found a passion for printmaking and painting.

I paint with acrylic and then hand draw with a gel pen. In the case of printmaking, I carve out my designs on a rubber block, hand mix the color(s), and then apply the ink with a roller, pressing paper into the block for a finished print. Colors are custom mixed and unique each time.
