Artist Statement

My art is inspired by the life I see in things like stains and cracks on sidewalks. I work primarily in watercolor and colored pencil, and my style is characterized by minimal lines and shading. My process is not defined by preconceived ideas on my part, but rather one in which I listen to the stains and the cracks that call out to me. I lend them the hands they need to come into life; they bring me joy and peace.

L'Architecte was inspired by the sidewalk cracks seen in the photo below.
