about the artist

I am an American abstract-expressionist painter based in Charlotte, North Carolina.

An art school dropout, I chose to spend over a decade working as a performing circus artist, a career that has given my work its signature bold color palettes and sweeping line quality. 

My subject matter explores self-actualization through deep introspection and relationships to community, friendships. family, and environment.

Always concerned with presence, depth, texture, and narrative, my works bring a keen sense of emotion to viewers, evoking passionate reactions from fans and critics alike.

My influences include historical and contemporary artists from Toulouse-Lautrec to Agustí Puig, Pat Stier, and Ricardo Weisse.
