A look at some of my earlier work, in no particular order, other than what seemed to me, to be pleasing to scroll through. It might be a good idea to read through my Artist Statement after viewing this page, if you haven't done so already. It will guide you through my process over the years: the variety of mediums and ways I put things down on paper and other surfaces, whether it's a more studied piece, or a free-flowing "gestural" one that may literally take me just a few minutes to create. You'll see abstracts, landscapes, figurative work, and fantastical things inspired by my past, my present, or future imaginings.

Using Dr. Martin dyes, a color spectrum is flanked by vertical lines of color. A horizontal black line runs along the bottom.
