Artist Statement

I grew up in Utah. My paintings are created using oil paint on panels, which are

layered in bold brushstrokes, vital palette knife work, and vibrant colors that are

often sanded down or scraped to show paint underlays. In doing so, I aim to

capture the landscape and the passage of time in the western region, as well as

correct unwanted marks and create a feeling of nostalgia and a connection

to the American West.
