"The Necklace" Artwork

As a trained musician, my journey into the world of visual art began unexpectedly during college in NYC, thanks to a talented roommate whose passion for art opened my eyes to new creative expressions. Inspired by his work, I soon found myself drawn to canvas as a personal artistic outlet beyond music. Those college years became a shared exploration, a time when we each pursued our unique art forms with a deep sense of inspiration.

Working with unconventional materials like metal leaf, acids, and string, I developed a distinct style that reflects my own vision. I’ve had the privilege of exhibiting my art in places that hold personal significance, including a solo show at the Museum of Fine Arts in Springfield, MA. There, 20 pieces—including Ism, The Vail, Pyramid, and Mean World Syndrome—were displayed for three months. It was a humbling experience to follow an exhibit by Georgia O’Keeffe, with the works of Picasso, Monet, and Degas housed just upstairs.
