About

Based in Amagansett New York.

I make art to share my felt experience and reverence for nature.

I think of my work as a visual conversation about our connection with the natural world.

The people/nature relationship found in art and history spans cave paintings to Renaissance altarpieces. 

Plants and the places they exist are central themes in my work.

Furthermore, as a gardener, I experience the healing power of plants every time I dig in the garden or take a walk outdoors.

Humans are hardwired to be in nature. Neuroscience and ethnobotany both confirm nature’s beneficial impact on our well-being, from ordinary activities like a hike to simply looking at the colors found in nature.

Plants are integral to our well-being and to that of planet Earth.
