Biography
Born and raised in northeast Ohio, I attained a B.A. in Studio Art at Allegheny College in Pennsylvania. I also completed courses in pottery, drawing, and graphic design.
I began to use encaustic wax medium in 2018 and immediately fell in love with the artform. Using both heat and beeswax was, to me, an obvious connection to my background in ceramics. While I can control many aspects of what I create, the end results are often out of my control. Versatility and the element of surprise in my work always keeps me challenged and interested.
The beauty and patterns found in the natural world are endless, magical muses. My work is most gratifying when it emits an otherworldly feeling while maintaining a foundation of realism.
