Xylem + Phloem is part of my abstract gestalt series. It is inspired by my fascination with topographical maps, flow fields, and the balance nature strikes between chaos and structure. Xylem and Phloem are the methods plants use to transport energy throughout their systems. The colors in this piece are inspired by plant life. It was painted using watercolor on clayboard and sealed with a thin acrylic varnish. I invite viewers to bring their own experience, stories and interpretation to the pieces in this series. This piece is 48” x 36” x 1.5 and comes with d-rings and wire on the back to provide for ease in hanging. It is varnished with a thin layer of acrylic for ease of cleaning.

I am a multi-disciplinary artist based in Austin, Texas. I make work that focuses on environmental issues using sustainable studio practices. I source site specific soils and other natural materials from different areas around Texas and the country to produce my own paint. Through my work,I raise awareness of climate change as a human issue to innovate and protect the resources that we have. I am an autodidact who has also trained in classical and intuitive painting. I strike a balance between the two by creating a structured plan for each work, allowing for freedom for my intuition. I find that systems in nature and science work with a balance of predictable patterns and chaos. This balance between structure and freedom are imperative to my work. The flow of water is a central theme in my work. I mix water and paint and allow it to flow freely within the boundaries of the lines that I have planned. I work with water and soil because I am fascinated with fluid dynamics, and I love letting nature take part in the creation of each piece of work. This aspect of my work mirrors nature in the way that even seemingly chaotic events, such as a waterfall, can evoke a sense of calm and wonder. I hope that the viewer will feel quieted by my work, much as they would if they were sitting in a pristine natural landscape. My work celebrates the peaceful and messy aspects of the natural world, and in doing so, I would like to encourage viewers to celebrate those same aspects in themselves.
