About

 

 

I am an artist specializing in one-of-a-kind oil paintings, crafted with meticulous attention to detail. My work centers around books—not just as objects, but as symbols of knowledge, imagination, and personal connection. I've always believed that books hold meaning beyond their words.

Growing up in a small town with no museums or galleries, my early exposure to art came from a surprising place: the school library. Tucked among the shelves was a modest collection of art books. Within those pages, I caught my first glimpse of a world far beyond my immediate surroundings—a world rich with color, creativity, and possibility.

In my work, I hope to evoke that same sense of discovery. Each painting is both a tribute to the written word and an invitation to reflect on the power of literacy, art, and imagination.
