I’ve been drawing my whole life, though my interest in painting really began when I was learning about Greco-Roman mythology as a child. School-time readings of the Odyssey and the Aeneid were always accompanied by illustrations, and I loved seeing the different ways that the verses were expressed visually. At 18, I moved to Florence, Italy, to study drawing and painting at the Angel Academy of Art, an atelier concentrated on traditional painting. After living there for four years, I moved to France to continue my studies at the American University of Paris and earned a BA in Comparative Literature with a minor in Fine Arts in 2021. I’m currently living in Florida.

As a figurative artist, I focus primarily on the form and movement of humans and animals in order to express emotion. My primary interest is in capturing the sculptural qualities of my subjects and to use plastic forms to create a poetic and lyrical world for the viewer. I take much inspiration from the imagery of ancient myths and my favorite pieces of literature, as well as the styles of the École des Beaux-Arts de Paris of the nineteenth century.

Currently my paintings and drawings are in private collections in the US, UK, and Europe. If you’re interested in any of my work or commissioning a piece, please do not hesitate to contact me.
