Conversations with Flowers
“My floral paintings aren’t really about flowers and my skull paintings aren’t really about bones.
Somewhere between life and death sits the human experience. Through nature I seek to understand it.”
My floral paintings begin long before I pick up a brush.
Each painting begins in the garden, where seasons unfold one bloom at a time. At the easel, compositions reveal themselves gradually as flowers open, fade, and change. The paintings become conversations with nature, built slowly through observation, patience, and time. Learn more about my process →
My skull and bone paintings begin the same way—with quiet observation.
Studied from life for more than twenty years, these drawings and paintings look beyond documentation—contemplating the stories held within each specimen. Like the flowers, they begin with quiet observation and become an invitation to reflect on impermanence, memory, and the human experience. Discover the stories within the bones →
