About My Artwork

About Me

My artwork is focused on exploring and refining my love for oil painting, in which the subject matter varies from landscapes, to food and the natural world. I try to work seasonally to capture the beautiful surrounding Vermont landscape in plein air, deepening my own understanding of light, composition and in capturing the sense of place in each painting location. Sometimes if it’s not possible to work outside, I will work from images in my studio from recent outings or travels that inspire me.

In my life’s work I am most passionate about where art, psychotherapy and mindfulness intersect. I explores this intersection in my daily art and meditation practice, in addition to exploring the wide array of expressive arts and somatic psychotherapy techniques.
