Painting for me is really just the world’s best excuse to be outside 🌱 My passion for nature, people, and connection to place are the biggest influences in my work. I enjoy working “en plein air” and create most of my paintings on location. When I’m not painting I work at a cafe and volunteer for cruxing in color, a non-profit that works to connect, support and empower rock climbers of color in the colorado front range. I love gardening with my girlfriend, playing pickup soccer and rock climbing with friends. thank you for taking the time to stop by!
