I am a visual artist and art educator working across painting, installation, and printmaking. My practice is rooted in contemplative inquiry and an ongoing exploration of consciousness, drawing inspiration from sacred geometry and esoteric symbolism to investigate deeper levels of reality.

 

I am also the host of the podcast Concerning The Spiritual In Art, where I engage artists from around the world in conversations about spirituality, consciousness, and the creative process.

 

My latest body of work explores the connection between inner and outer worlds. I often reflect on the relationship between notions of the divine and the visceral reality of being earthbound. Many spiritual and religious traditions speak of merging “heaven and earth.” While this is commonly understood as a metaphor, I approach the idea as something more, something humanity can actively participate in building. My artwork engages these ideas through a deeply personal lens and offers a visual space for viewers to meditate on them.

 

The geometry within these works are my own expression of divine energies and sacred geometry systems that date back millennia. The landscapes emerge from memories, dreams, and inner visions, blending the seen and the unseen.

 

Process plays a central role in this body of work, pushing me to experiment with new materials. Long fascinated by gemstones and crystals for both their inherent beauty and spiritual properties, I have developed methods for incorporating hand-crushed gemstones directly into my painting process, as well as within traditional oil glazes. Across cultures and throughout history, these stones have been used in sacred sites and artifacts; by integrating them into my work, I seek to strengthen the material connection between the earthly and the spiritual.

 

Ultimately, these works express the infinite variations and dimensions of beauty that exist here. They aim to evoke a sense of reverence, a quiet acknowledgment of the mystery and magic of how the material and the spiritual are infinitely interconnected.
