2015 -Â The Allegory
What if the deepest truths were written not just in ancient texts, but in the very fabric of who we are?
What if our longings, our creative impulses, our capacity for love—all flow from a divine blueprint embedded in our being?
"The Allegory" emerged from this conviction: that we are created with purpose woven into our DNA, that our affections and aspirations are not accidents but arrows pointing toward our true calling. These paintings serve as visual translations of profound spiritual mysteries, transforming complex truths into accessible beauty. Each canvas becomes a bridge between the intellectual and the intuitive, offering simplicity without sacrificing depth. Where words might overwhelm or alienate, color and form invite contemplation. Where concepts might feel distant, these images draw near, whispering truths that resonate in the deep places of the heart.
This body of work reflects a Creator whose love speaks in multiple languages—through ancient wisdom, through lived experience, and through the visual poetry that emerges when human hands collaborate with divine inspiration. Each piece holds both passion and reverence, recognizing that the most sacred truths are often the most beautiful.
"The Allegory" serves as both compass and companion for the spiritual journey. These are paintings that keep us aligned with our highest purpose while celebrating the magnificent mystery of the Creator's love—a love so vast it requires every medium, every metaphor, every color on the palette to even begin to capture its essence. In a world that often separates the sacred from the beautiful, this collection insists they were never meant to be apart. Here, faith becomes visible, wisdom becomes tangible, and the Creator reveals divine presence through pigment and light.
For collectors who understand that art and faith are not opposing forces, but complementary expressions of the human soul reaching toward the divine.
2014 - Unearthly
"You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden." — Matthew 5:14-16
In 2014, the question arrived like morning light through shuttered windows: What if our brief time here is not burden but blessing? What if our very temporality makes us luminous?
"Unearthly" explores this sacred paradox through intimate works on wood—chosen not for convenience but for its living memory, its rings that mark time's passage, its grain that speaks of seasons weathered and survived. Each small canvas becomes a meditation on the organic rhythm of existence, where we bloom briefly and beautifully before returning to the earth that shaped us.
These pieces whisper rather than shout, their modest scale inviting close contemplation of what truly matters when stripped of pretense. They ask us to examine what entangles us—the weight we carry that dims our natural radiance, the fears that convince us to hide our light beneath familiar bowls of safety and conformity.
Here, figures emerge from wood like souls remembering their divine nature. They carry both earthly burden and celestial possibility, caught in that eternal human tension between who we are and who we're called to become. Each painting becomes a lamp refusing to be hidden, a gentle insistence that our light was never meant for shadows.
This body of work arrived during a season of reckoning with legacy—not the monuments we leave behind, but the light we kindle in others while we're here. On these wooden foundations, temporary yet eternal, each piece serves as both reminder and invitation: to shine not because we are permanent, but precisely because we are not.
"Unearthly" holds space for the holy tension of being human—rooted in earth yet reaching toward heaven, brief yet boundless, small yet significant beyond measure.
These intimate works illuminate not just walls, but souls.Â
2011 - Heaven, Earth and the In-Betweens
There are moments when we pause between the rush of daily life and catch a glimpse of something deeper—a quiet knowing that we're part of something larger than ourselves. "Heaven, Earth and the In-Betweens" captures these sacred pauses, transforming them into visual poetry that speaks to the soul. Each piece in this collection emerges from the liminal spaces where the divine meets the earthly, where breath meets intention, where aspiration touches reality. These aren't simply artworks to admire from a distance—they're intimate companions for your journey of becoming.
In your home, these pieces create sanctuaries of contemplation. They anchor your morning meditations and witness your evening reflections. In your workspace, they serve as gentle reminders of your deeper purpose, keeping you tethered to what truly matters when the world pulls you in countless directions.
The art speaks in the language of texture and light, color and shadow—a visual vocabulary that bypasses the mind and speaks directly to the heart. Each brushstroke carries intention, each composition holds space for your own story to unfold within it.
This is more than decoration. This is about creating environments that nurture the person you're becoming—spaces that hold your dreams, ground your practice, and remind you daily of the sacred ordinary moments that make up a meaningful life.
For those who understand that true luxury lies not in excess but in alignment, "Heaven, Earth and the In-Betweens" offers a pathway home to yourself.
Available for private viewing and acquisition. Each piece seeks its perfect home.
2010 - The Red Letter
In 2010, something shifted. The bold, expressive canvases that had defined my work suddenly felt like beautiful noise—vibrant but somehow hollow. I found myself craving silence, seeking the spaces between the colors where real stories lived.
"The Red Letter" emerged from this hunger for depth, born in a moment when promises felt sacred and purpose called louder than applause. Each piece carries the weight of a vow—to those I love, to the work itself, to the woman I was becoming behind the brush. These paintings marked a turning point, a conscious departure from pure expression toward something more vulnerable: experience made visible. Where once I painted what I felt, now I painted who I was—the accumulated wisdom of sleepless nights, difficult conversations, and the quiet courage it takes to keep showing up The female form became my vessel for exploring this interior landscape. Through restricted palettes that forced me to find richness in restraint, through lighting that carved emotion from shadow, I discovered that limitation breeds intimacy. Each figure holds the complexity of being human—strong yet tender, certain yet searching. This was art born not from emptiness but from abundance, not from success but from the brave decision to begin again. To strip away everything that felt safe and familiar, and trust that something truer would emerge.
"The Red Letter" stands as both confession and commitment—a visual promise written in pigment and light, honoring the sacred responsibility we have to our deepest selves and those who walk alongside us.
From the artist's personal collection, these pieces represent a pivotal chapter in an ongoing dialogue
Icons - 2005
2005 - Present
There are places within us that language cannot reach—territories of the soul where words crumble and fall short, where only vibration and color can carry the weight of what we hold. "Icons" was born from this recognition, from the understanding that sometimes we must paint what we cannot say.
Beginning in 1998 as whispered sketches, these works have grown into commanding canvases that pulse with the frequency of unspoken truths. Each piece serves as a visual sanctuary, a place where anxiety quiets and depression lifts its heavy hand just long enough for clarity to emerge from the fog.
This is art as medicine, as prayer without words. When the noise of modern life threatens to drown out our inner voice, these paintings become tuning forks for the soul—reminding us of rhythms older than thought, deeper than fear. They speak to the part of us that remembers how to breathe before we learned how to worry.
The figures that emerge from these canvases are not portraits but presences—archetypal voices calling from the edges of consciousness, inviting us into conversations we're not yet brave enough to have with ourselves. They are the friends who sit with us in our darkness, the witnesses to our becoming.
From intimate gallery walls along the West Coast to private collections that treasure their transformative power, "Icons" continues to evolve as both artistic practice and spiritual discipline. Each commissioned piece becomes a collaboration between artist and collector, a shared recognition that some healings require beauty, some truths demand color.
These are the paintings that find you when you need them most—when words have failed and only frequency remains to guide you home to yourself.
