Also, ANTHROPOLOGIE has one of my paintings available as a print in their fall collection!

My medium is mostly oil on canvas. I include some collage elements into a lot of my paintings. My style is based in 19th century and older botanical drawings and landscape, but it ventures into folk art and surrealism too. The major theme of my work is exploring the interconnectedness of the natural world and how we link with it as humans. I’m interested in ecology, biodiversity, folklore, and history as it pertains to the land and people.
