I am a painter using time-honored techniques to explore artistic themes and ideas with a contemporary approach. I received classical painting instruction in Florence, Italy and New York City, studying with leaders of contemporary figurative art. I intend to bring my classical training and apply it, through a personal lens of interpretation, to the world around me. I attempt to tie the historic traditions of Western art into the contemporary world in a way that feels novel and fresh, striving to establish a connection that transcends the two-dimensional plane.
