Artist’s statement

I am a painter and printmaker working in Provincetown, MA, US. My work focuses on one’s ongoing familiarity with internal and external consciousness in different environments. I aim to create a dialogue with how memory is managed using place-specific motifs in my work. My dune grass works chart overlapping layers of consciousness: what we remember, what fades, and what returns altered. I make monotype-paintings using layers of pigment and form to evoke how we experience the weathered memories of place, most recently, the Provincelands of the Outer Cape. I focus on rural places that may at times feel forgotten given the crushing drive towards global urbanization. My printmaking mimics excavation—where emotion, experience, and time meet in layered form. The works are made in such a way that they gradually build into textured, emotionally resonant fields. The gestures that surface, recede, and blur into one another hold space for the ambiguous and unseen aspects of places in transition.

Biography

My artistic journey has evolved from a dedicated lifelong practice of painting, drawing, and printmaking into a public, professional endeavor. My professional training in the arts is a blend of formal foundational education and ongoing practical development. It began with a special art curriculum at Lincoln-Sudbury Regional High School, where I studied composition, design, and color theory, alongside techniques in printmaking, stained glass, and ceramics. This creative background is complemented by a bachelor’s degree in history, as well as a master’s and a doctoral degree in social welfare policy, providing a unique interdisciplinary lens that deeply informs my work. My artistic practice has been further refined through continuing education at key institutions on Cape Cod, including the Fine Arts Work Center, Castle Hill Center for the Arts in Truro, and the Provincetown Art Association and Museum. My personal and community art-related work has been recognized with grants from the Massachusetts Cultural Council and The Provincetown Commons. I teach a printmaking class at The Provincetown Commons. My work has been featured in juried group exhibitions, including shows at the Cape Cod Museum of Art, the Provincetown Art Association and Museum (PAAM) and the Cape Cod Cultural Center. I have also had three two-person shows at Four Eleven Gallery (Provincetown, Massachusetts) and have been included in group shows at several other galleries, including, Yellow Studios (Cross River, New York), Edgewater Gallery (Brattleboro, Vermont) and Galley West Gallery (Orleans, Massachusetts), among others. I am currently represented by Four Eleven Gallery in Provincetown, MA.
