Exhibition History2024 West Michigan Area Show (KIA, May 21 - August 21, 2024)Label Text In my artistic journey, I find fascination in the interplay between the ordinary and the extraordinary, the mundane and the magical. As a painter, I delve into the realm of magical realism, where I seek to capture fleeting moments of wonder hidden within the fabric of everyday life. Drawing inspiration from Medieval artwork and tapestries, I am enamored by the intricate narratives woven into each thread, echoing the complexities of the human experience. Through my paintings, I invite viewers to transcend the confines of reality and embark on a journey where the familiar becomes enchanting, the ordinary becomes extraordinary. In a world where the mundane often overshadows the miraculous, I aim to unveil the magic that lies just beneath the surface, waiting to be discovered by those willing to see with open hearts and minds.
