It all started with .... a tree.

I create acrylic paintings on redeemed and live bark wood, using the natural grain as my canvas. My work employs a method rooted in pareidolia, the tendency to perceive familiar patterns where none exist. This technique allows me to uncover and highlight the hidden images within the wood, often revealing the presence of animals and other elements of nature.

Nature is my greatest inspiration. I have always felt a profound spiritual connection to the natural world and its inhabitants. Through my art, I strive to convey this bond and to invite viewers into a space where they, too, can feel the serenity and wonder that nature provides.

As a survivor of childhood trauma, my journey has been one of healing and transformation. I hope my work serves as a beacon of hope for others, demonstrating that beauty and resilience can emerge from even the most challenging experiences. My early art, which focused on tree drawings, has evolved alongside my growth, both personally and artistically. Now, with the unique materials and methods I use, I feel my art has come full circle.

The pareidolia process is central to my work, and it is a technique rarely explored by other artists. By embracing this approach, I can create pieces that are not only visually striking but also deeply meaningful. Each painting is a collaboration between the natural patterns in the wood and my artistic vision, resulting in a unique narrative that speaks to the resilience of nature and the human spirit.
