Our world is teeming with vibrant life. It’s in the blades of grass in our front lawns. It’s in the symphonic birdsong that greets us in the morning. It’s even in the air we breathe. Life surrounds us, envelops us, and connects us all.
Since the beginning of human history, the beauty and complexity of our natural world have inspired both the arts and sciences, each informing the advancement and illumination of the other. As science broadens our understanding of the intricacies and hidden aspects of our natural world, the field of creative expression acts as a perfect catalyst to cultivate a deeper connection with nature, inspiring curiosity, exploration, and a sense of interconnectedness.
I employ art to visually interpret philosophical writings and poetry, focusing on Christian mystics like Thomas Merton, St. Teresa of Avila, and C.S. Lewis. I’ve also done studies of popular music, including U2, Arcade Fire, and Mumford and Sons. Given the subjective nature of poetry and fine art, I express my “visual reading” in an abstract style, allowing viewers to discover their own meanings. I am an encaustic artist and beyond wax, I use oil paint, wood, found objects, and metals.
