Just Flesh And Bones Painting

Growing up in a rural town in Southeastern Oregon I was constantly surrounded by life and enveloped by the landscape. During undergrad I participated in exchange programs to London and Rome, which effected my way of thinking and goals of becoming a practicing artist. I have a deep love for literature and the worlds it creates, these worlds are ever present in my studio process. Experiences gained through travel play a key role in the creation of my work; a recent trip to Baffin Island in Northern Canada greatly informed my most current body of work.
