Painting and Drawing

An abstract piece with a large, deep blue section of textured paint ringing a large white section, with a more textured white section between the two wavy sections. The pattern resembles a seascape seen from above where waves are crashing over a white sandy beach

I am a mixed media artist currently creating abstract paintings. I grew up on the Northwest side of Chicago and transplanted to a northern suburb. As a curious and creative child who loved to draw and incorporate mud pies into drawings, I grew up to become an Accounting and IT professional. Sometimes we let fear take hold, but the curious and creativity is something that followed me into adulthood and coupled with eternal optimism, I've made sure to explore photography, pottery, and painting.
I am a self-taught artist and rely on my inner curiosity and creative drive to create. If there had to be a label to my art, I would call it intuitive art. I don't have a set process other than to use materials and paint to reflect how I'm feeling in the moment.
