Painting
In the practice of painting, architectural elements are investigated. Drawing curiosity to shapes, colors, and patterns found in everyday surroundings. Photographs are edited, drawn digitally, then hand-drawn and painted on canvas. By isolating and transforming fragments of a larger structure, viewers are invited to explore familiar elements from a new perspective. 

The tedious process of making conscious choices from beginning to end is valued. Where especially the extremely precise painted parts create an alienating effect. The image sometimes appears too perfect to be painted, causing the viewer to look longer and rediscover certain details.
