Being immersed in the intersection of art and nature is a foundational part of my spiritual practice. For me, painting is a process of focused energy and intention; a meditative act as well as a form of resistance. I work primarily in watercolor and ink, but also a variety of other media: oil, embroidery, collage, gouache, acrylic, and digital media. At its core, my art practice is a kind of communion - not in the religious sense, but as a profoundly felt exchange with the natural world. Making art gives me a way to be in an intimate dialogue with the things I love and to alchemize my experiences. Much of the recurring symbolism in my work has been inspired by defining life events: the power of pregnancy and birth, psychedelic states, growing up within patriarchal religion, and deep joy. Through artmaking, I seek to explore beauty and interconnectedness in an open-ended and evolving way and as an act of reverence, curiosity, and wonder.
